Diagnostics
Note that diagnostic tests generally delete any data on the calculator. Be sure to back up any important information held in the calculator before running these tests.
While holding SHIFT and 7 keys (or just SHIFT key for early models) press the ON key. Pressing the SHIFT key shows 5 display test patterns in turn, followed by the ROM version. Press AC to get the contrast test screen, and press AC again to get to the keypad test - the numbers then increase as each key is pressed in the correct order (omitting the ON key which exits test mode).
Replacements:
If you have a Casio fx-83ES that is no longer working, you can first try replacing the AAA battery. If that doesn't solve the problem, then you can consider replacing the calculator with a modern equivalent.
