Hi all,

I have an elderly Casio scientific calculator (fx-3400p) which I've owned
since new in 1991 (so I'm quite attached to it). Lately, the numeral '2'
key has become a bit flaky inasmuch as every press doesn't always
register 100% of the time any more. I know these things are dirt cheap to
replace, but I've got used to the layout of it and don't really want to
upgrade to something new if it can be fixed reasonably easily.
Any ideas what the problem might be?
thanks.


If its like my trusty solar powered fx451 from 1980s, used 20 times
today. To get
inside you pull the rear surround away from the case body proper, by
pushing your fingers through mock leather covering on the long edge
farthest fromthe hinge section. That edging traps the mock leather in
the gap between the 2 case parts
