Here is a comparison of Texas Instruments model 83+ and 86 calculators:
(Hint: mine is the crappy one with no pads and whiteout and drawings on the screen.)
Hopefully you knew enough to realize that the first step should probably be to remove the cover.
Remove the battery cover and the batteries.
If you think youre cool because your jack has a plug, think again. Take it out.
Remove all of the screws visible on the back of the calculator.
And remove the backup battery cover and its screw.
Using a wedge, slide the two halves apart by sliding the wedge down the sides.
Now lose the screws holding the silver… thing… in place.
Now remove the srews holding the PCB in place.
Remove the PCB and the screen.
And the button covers (the fun part is coming…)
repeat the steps for the other calculator.
Here comes the fun part… Take your friends calculator and spill all of the buttons on the floor, then catch the look on his face as you laugh diabolically.
I’m the best.




Could you please take apart an HP 49g? Not the HP49g+.A lot of folks would enjoy that one.
Thanks, Grayhound
The way you have shown to stick the screwdriver in the calculator before you unscrew the backup battery screw will result in some potential damage, if you could change the order of pictures 12 and 13 so that people who don’t know what they are doing don’t damage their $100 calculator, great pictures by the way!
I’ve been wanting to open up my graphing calculator for a long time to get some crud out of it as well as over clock it. Can you tell us what kind of screw driver you used to open it and how you did it? Thanks.
It was a small Torx bit, T6 or T7 if I remember right.
Torx T5 or T6 will both probably work.
I got my TI calc for free, i need the data kit then i can start downloading games for it and try my hand at putting videos on it, I saw someone do this with a flash memory drive and a USB to TI (I dont know what kind of plug it was) adaptor and they played a clip of the movie scarface i have all this in a video file
first of all cd1234 is my other name. does anyone know where i can get the Data kit for a TI-83? radioshack doesnt sell them alone just with a new calc
Where did you get a torx screwdriver that was small enough? All the ones I have are to big.
Use a Torx driver T6 available from Sears P/N41651 for $3.50.
can you do this and then put it back together and still have it work
My TI 84 Plus Silver was stolen, so now I have my sister’s TI 83…
i did everything up to removing the screws……but i still can’t take apart my calculator by using the wedge
Hello, I know how to take apart most of a calculator. I need help removing the screen properly and transporting it to another calculator without ruining both calculators.
any help on this issue would be much appreciated,
Josiah
PS this is for a TI-83
