Yes, just the same cmos battery the desktop computer use. easy to replace, located on the main control board.

Testimonial: "Can you confirm this with a manual page, photo, or link to another website? I think the Korg M50 uses EPROM's so no battery would be required. I opened it up (not an easy task), but didn't spot any battery in an obvious location. So if there's a battery, it would have to be on the underside of one of the boards. I also have some schematics and parts list for the M50, but I'm not an expert in electronics. The parts list doesn't mention a batter, either, so that's why I'm asking the question here."

Only starting display backlight When I press the power button on my Yamaha PSR E413 keyboard. Not working any button, key & no any sound, I checked with both power adapter and battery, But same issue.

When you turn on your keyboard it carries out a self check to make sure all is OK, if not the start up procedure stops

It could be a fault on the mainboard, the rubber switched do wear but as the light is coming on it would indicate this is working

Try a master reset : whilst switched off, hold down the highest note (Top C) and whilst holding down turn on, after a few seconds if this is successful then the display will show up, this function resets to factory setup

If this fails you will need to investigae board connections etc inside the keyboard

Good luck

Pss680 keyboard ,we turn the button on and no power.we have tried it with batteries and the adaptor and still no power,wondering if you are able to offer some advice.

If it was just no working on power adaptor I would have suggested the socket was faulty. However as not working on batteries I would suggest it is the on/off switch.

From what I can remember the PSS680 used a slide on/off switch which when you look inside has a metal piece that makes the circuit on the PCB track. Over a period of time this can wear or get clogged up with dust etc.

The other thing you could check is, do you think a wrong adaptor might have been used. Check the polarity against the picture shown on the back of the keyboard. If it is wrong you may have blown some of the power diodes.

Battery problem. When using batteries, the keyboard shuts off without warning several seconds after it has been turned on or when the keys or buttons are touched. The keyboard works fine when plugged into...

Sounds like the connections may be oxidised. With a long, sharp knife scratch at the metal contacts at each end of the battery compartment until they are shiny,and make sure your batteries have good life in them. If that does not work there may be a broken wire connection inside, or, less likely, a short circuit has occurred that is draining the batteries (I doubt that though)

When I turn on my Kurzweil PC2X, the LCD screen shows the message 'Scanner is dead!' followed by 'battery voltage low (0.0 volts).' The lights on the keyboard flash at me and the keyboard won't make any...

Try a factory reset.

Turn the unit on, and while the display says "Please Wait", press and release the Panic button. Press the right arrow button till the display says "Hard RESET". Press Enter, then the button under "Yes" in the display.

Casio keyboard won't power on

If batteries or power adapter does not power up the keyboard...possibilities are...if it has a fuse inside or fusible link check it.replace if blown.Another possibility is power component has a short. maybe from constant movement of power plug into keyboard.sometimes just by inserting the plug and wiggling it can solve the issue..having this fixed by a technician can cost a lot of money.but,if your keyboard`s value is less than the cost of fixing it,might as well replace your instrument.

I have a Yamaha PSR S700 keyboard. Whenever I play it, the OTS settings automatically gets changed and disabling all my other buttons on panel. Only if I select 'No' for the question displayed in...

It sounds like one of the OTS buttons is getting triggered accidentally. There may be a build up of residue behind the button. With the unit off, try rapidly pressing the OTS buttons, one at a time. This should help to move any debris which may be creating a false contact.

If you are feeling brave, you can try opening the keyboard and getting inside, under the button with some electrical contact cleaner such as DeOxit or Servisol.But be warned: it can be difficult to get the parts back together properly! So if you don't have much servicing experience, call your local music shop to find a service technician.

I put my battery inside my key board but it wont work and i dont have the wire for it but do u need the wire to make it work

Hello,

The battery needs to be charged before it will work in your keyboard. Maybe, the battery is out of charge that's why your keyboard is not working.

You need the wire to turn on the keyboard and at the same time to charge the battery. If the battery is already full, you can remove the wire and the keyboard will still work until the power in the battery is drained out.

I hope this helps.

Won't make a sound

This is the factory reset procedure: While pressing the three lower left buttons in the Rythm Group Section ( Soul&Disco, Gospel&Blues, Country&Western ) at the same time; turn the Power button on. If you don't have the manual it is here:http://www.retrevo.com/support/Panasonic-SX-PR903H-Music-Keyboards-manual/id/619ci856/t/2/ I hope this helps.Most keyboards have a memory battery inside that has to be eventually replaced also which might be the problem.

Keyboard doest work

Normal 0 Assuming that you have good batteries installed, turn the Keyboard over and locate the small reset/connect button on the back of the keyboard and press it. Then try to see if it is working. If not try pressing the button on the receiver and then on the keyboard.
Turn the mouse over and find the small rest/connect button on the bottom of the mouse and press it. This should connect the mouse to the receiver and work properly. If not, try pressing the receiver button and then press the button on the mouse. This should be done whenever you change batteries or glitch.
Hope this helps. Bud
