Check the DC adapter. It may be shorted/broken. This type of stuff happens sometimes.

    so.. it's a digital piano... hmmm, try looking for a severed wire of sorts, see if there is any variation of voltage at the end of the power supply. I'm sorry I can't give you anything more specific. I do not have experience with digital pianos. But, in general, if the fuse has been replaced, probably the power supply is toast, just got to fine a new one.

My Casio Ctk-3200 keyboard can't get switched on with the power line, but it works with batteries.

You probably have shorted out the power supply. Test it with an ohm meter for proper operation. If it's not working, replace it. If it is working, then the power supply board in the instrument is shorted and you'll need to take it in for repair.

Enter button not working

If this is a traditional keyboard (not laptop) or extremely fancy keyboard.

Try unplugging the keyboard. Then.
  1. Take a butter knife and slide it into the crevice next to the "enter key".
  2. Apply a small amount of pressure to pry the key upward.
  3. With little effort the key should pop off or slide off.
  4. Check the spot the key was for dirt, dust, food, etc. Clean it if you must. Make sure the actual key does not have anything stuck to the bottom of it.
  5. Push the key back onto it's place on the keyboard.
  6. Plug back in and see if that worked.
If this did not work, you may need to replace the keyboard OR you may want to make sure no viruses are playing an aweful trick on you.

Repairing Yamaha psr-12

If the power adapter is not the original adappter- check to make sure the polarity is correct- it should be marked on the keyboard near the adapter socket, and also on the adapter itself.

The keyboard should have an internal fuse- check that. Then with keyboard open, if the fuse is okay, trace the power flow from the power pack and look for broken wires, bad solder connections, stressed components like bulging capacitors, etc. It may have a burned out zener diode in the power supply regulator portion of the main circuit.

I plugged a sustain pedal from my Yamaha DX7 on the dumper pedal jack but it works opposite as it should (by pressing the pedal sound cancels as i release the keys; when pedal runs completely free sounds...

every sustain pedal got different polarity.. normally just go to global setting on your keyboard and change damper polarity setting to plus or minus (select which one work with your sustain padle).

Hello- my P95 sustain pedal does not work when plugged in but the sustain works when you disconnect the cord from the back of the keyborad

This is confusing... you say "the sustain works when you disconnect the cord"? How can that happen? and doesn't work when it is plugged in.

MOST sustain pedal problems are due to people using a different pedal than the keyboard is designed to use. It is very common that someone tries to use a Roland sustain pedal on a Yamaha and oof course it doesn't work because the Roland pedal is normally closed and Yamaha usually requires a normally open contact.

A FEW keyboards now check the state of the pedal input when power is first turned on and configure the pedal polarity accordingly. For these keyboards, make sure the pedal is plugged in before power is turned on.

The external speakers attached to my m audio prokeys 88sx are no longer working. I have replaced the fuses in both but the fuses blow on power up. I then used the keyboard with a set of headphones. One of...

It is NOT likely the keyboard is "killing the speakers"... OR the headphones for that matter.

I suspect the problem is bad switch contacts in the headphone jack that cut off the speaker line outputs when headphones are plugged into the pro keys. These jacks are, to put it bluntly, JUNK... they are EASILY damaged by pulling the cable plugged into them sideways. You will need to service the unit.

If the keyboard is lighting up, there is a 90% chance the problem is in the software in your MAC.

Hint: Software "breaks" easier than the hardware !!!

Re-install your software as a first step.

Casio CTK-651 keyboard wont switch on

An internal fuse is UNLIKELY.

More likely is either a bad connection/connector at power input or a bad or intermittent power switch.

Yamaha Keyboard Microphone Not Working

Hi Simon. Has the cable to your Mike been trapped under the stand, trodden on etc. Could be a faulty plug or even Mike/switch. Did the Mike ever crackle under use?

Have you another Mike and lead to try?

Sorry for the obvious questions but I have seen this happen before and it was a faulty lead...
