i as an electronics enthusiast recommend you to de-solder the keypad (i believe its a matrix keypad) and check the connections from the pads to the IC and maybe you will be able to solder some wires from the keypad to the IC and fix it
Promising channel :) Would recommend not having background music playing through the entire length of your video - just for intro/timelapses/outro etc.

Thank you for the suggestion, I will give that a go when I get a quiet moment in the future!
Remember having one of these. it was one with a plastic case
Thanks for watching, glad I could bring back some memories!
@@retro_restorations It might also not have been the puzzle version, but usable as a actual calculator. not 100% sure
@@darknessblades If it had the plastic case I'm pretty sure it's going to be the one I flash up at 1:43

Thanks for the kind words of support and feedback John :)
Having looked around since this video it seems that these Little Professors are fairly prone to going faulty!
dude i almost watched this to find out you didnt even fix it
Ha can't win them all...it's not like I know when I start lol! Plenty of other videos, most of the time successful thankfully :D
