Hi, Assuming you have tested with another adaptor then invariably it is a broken solder joint on the power input connector.
Re soldering will work but eventually the same thing occurs.
Set the connector in epoxy resin (Araldite) or better still mount a new connector in the case and wire with flying leads.
All the best, Chris the Fader.

SOURCE: I have a Casio CTK

The adapter has a problem... likely a poor connection of input power that briefly contacts building up some voltage that is then stored in the capacitors in the adapter which then discharge quicklly when you turn on the Casio. The adapters with FIXED blades OFTEN have problems contacting the connections in wall receptacles and extension cords. You may need to bend the blades slightly or use a better receptacle like connector. IF your adapter has a three wire cord from it to the wall receptacle, those SOMETIMES don't seat well...

Got a used CTK 720 and it has no power. sugestions

try plugging in without the bateries...Also check your adaptor as well as your ac requirements on your keyboard..It specifically calls for a Casio AD-5 Adaptor.
  • 9V power supply; 850mA
  • Positive sleeve/negative tip This needs to match your adaptor Good Luck

Why does my Privia px200 won't turn on?... is the adapter the problem.

Use a multimeter to test the AC Adaptor (AD-12) for DC 12 volts. If no voltage buy a new one.

Correct adapter for casio wk 500

Casio AD-12 for my country with 240V

You may use any 12V 1A AC Adaptor that has the same DC jack provided the center is NEGATIVE. Most common generic AC Adaptors are Centre POSITIVE.
So cut DC end of the wire and solder them in reverse and insulate with tape and it will work.

No powerfrom the outlet source

The AC adaptor of my Casio Keyboard has reversed polarity from the Standard Power AV adaptor you get in the market. The center is NEGATIVE. When you try to use a new power supply that is NOT a CASIO original, you may need to reverse the polarity of the plug. Check that.

My keyboard keeps shutting off within a minute or two of playing. The woman I purchased it from told me that it had an auto-off battery saving mechanism if you don't touch a key for a while, but this...

If you are running on batteries, they are either depleted OR may have corrosion on the contacts in the keyboard which is COMMON problem. If using an adapter, the cords chronically work loose. A last problem is the switching for using battery or adapter can have poor contacts. If you don't have an adapter, get one and get one SPECIFICALLY for the keyboard... I don't know how many I have had to tell they have the wrong adapter and that is why their unit won't work.

My Casio keyboard won't play with the ac adapter but plays when I install batteries. Why doesn't the ac adapter work?

Test the continuity of your Adapter (input and output), if it fails your test replace it with the same output voltage requirement's and watch the polarity as well (negative ground mostly or positive ground).
