It's probably the small spring which makes electrical contact between the watch aluminum back and the outer housing, presumably to provide an electrical ground connection to the outside triple sensor. I've attached a photo with the location indicated by the yellow circle and arrow. It goes in the little hole and will fall out if you're not careful.Casio PAG 40 I took it apart to replace bateries a - 11_14_2012_6_41_27_pm.jpg

Hi there,
I have a few questions for you guys:
1. Where do the 2 gold spring go?
2. I did a stupid thing when trying to replace the bateries. I accidentally brokken the soldering of the triple sensor (please see the attached picture). Do you have any idea of what kind of soldering i have to use?

Many thanks in advance :)

    Your sensor can be saved soldering new wires from the triple sensor directly to PCB. You need a good soldering station and a good magnifier!

SOURCE: Changed dead batteries on PAG-40. Still one dead watch

There is a very small sticker with very small red print just adjacent to the battery compartment. This little sticker states "once batteries are replaced, you need to touch AC with tweezers". I did it with metal tweezers and the watch display came to life. Good luck!

Nike Triax Fury: when replacing battery, 2 springs fell out (silver and a gold one). Where do these go and where were they from?

I had the same problem - replaced the battery of my Nike Triax Fury and the time was blinking and none of the buttons were working. Turns out that you need both springs placed in the proper spot - the silver and gold springs. Both springs can be placed in their proper spot with the batter in. The gold one goes in the tiny hole near the "view" spot, and the silver spring goes year the 'cage' that holds the battery in place accross from the gold spring. Unfortunately, I can't add a photo or I would. Good luck.

Found small spring when changing battery

This happened because the COIL SPRING was lost during the battery change. This happens quite often to DIYers, as they do not know how the watch is built and the coil spring itself is very small, so, it's easy to loose it without even noticing it. Coil spring transmits electrical signals/vibrations from watch's movement to the quartz membrane attached inside case back. Now you have to find yours or need to visit your nearest watch repair shop and ask for the new one to be fitted..

Casio dw-290-t, springs came out when changing battery, I know wher 1 goes not the other?

The smaller spring is steel with gold plating. It goes into a hole that is near the outside diameter of the battery. You must remove the outer steel retainer to see the hole. Leave the other parts assembled. They will be loose at this point. When you look inside the hole you should see a gold bottom which is really a contact on the board. Insert the spring with the smaller diameter end into the hole. If you have the correct hole then the larger end of the spring will fit just perfectly. Assemble the outer steel retainer. Finish assembly.

Next time you replace the battery only remove the battery strap and leave the other parts intact. Good luck.

When using the barometer or altimeter on my my pag 40 - 2271 it shows err. How do I fix it? Do you know what page in the users guide shows how or gives directions on how to fix?

Same problem with my SPF-40, module 2273, after a small helical compression spring, silver color, fell out. I could not determine where it is suppose to be located. It could be the barometric reference spring for sensing the barometric pressure.

Casio SPF 40 beeper not working after battery change

There is this little spring which fits in one of the small holes in the watch. When I tested my watch without the spring, there was no beep. With the spring in place the sound worked nice again. So (IMO) apparently the little spring is used as contact between the watch en the "speaker" placed at the back of the watch.

regards,
Pieter

CASIO PAG-40 Keeps good time but buttons stopped working

open the backside.
probably the light switch contact at the six side of the watch (attached to the steel mainframe) may have contact with the electronic cirquit
