I'm willing to bet the internal battery is shot, as is in mine. I'm sure you have swapped the main batteries 4 AAA's if I remember correctly. If you look directly above those you will see a little screw and should be able to replace the internal battery. I don't have the exact version, as I have a TI84 Plus, but I remember the battery compartment being very similar.
Update:
It could be than that the logic board final went kaput. :( I know my buddies went out in a similar fashion. His started having screen graphic issues, than would die soon after replacing the batteries. Have you tried calling Texas instruments to see if maybe they have any other possibilities? Sorry that unless I have the device, and take a look at some of the terminals, I can't think of any possibilities.

ti83 plus power board contacts wear out. take the calc apart and put a layer of solder on it.

Is there some kind of tester that TI sells that can diagnose problems. I have 5 TI 83's that won't turn on. I haven't tried changing out the internal battery, but have read on another site that the internal battery will not show as a symptom of DOA. Think I will get at least one internal just to rule out that symptom anyway.

there is no tester. you need to use a voltmeter or part swapping. Easiest way is to solder the power contacts together with a wire to see if the screen gets power.

Hello I need help!!! My TI-83 Plus after changing the batteries and the internal battery, is still giving me a problem.. When I power it on all I see is one horizontal line at the bottom and then it starts to fade and I see nothing at all.

Same as other answers. There is internal corrosion on the flex cable or power pads. Opening and soldering is required for repair.
So how do you fix it? After opening and all?
I have the same problem

I fix calculators. Usually the power contact corrodes inside the case. And screen flex cables corrode. Ill post a fix sometime, otherwise there r online guides. No power problems cant be diagnosed with a tester. Open it up

Eric Brasuell, help us out. It would be great if you can tell us what you already tried. That way we will not suggest stuff that does not work for you.

I put new batteries in, and checked to see that the small cell battery was good, and it was. I took ALL of the batteries out, waited 5 minutes, then put them back in. I took only one battery out, then put it back in while holding the clear button, then again with the delete. That was basically what I could find on the Texas Instruments website, and other support websites.
