What do I need to do with my Casio CTK 700 which will make it run on batteries?

A Casio Keyboard Service Centre is the best idea.

This could be a loose plug inside the unit or it could be a circuit that is bad. If the plug failed it is from physical damage from something like tripping over it or heavy use. That can be repaired by replacing the plug. If it is something like a component in the unit on a board then it becomes a little more involved.

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

If you have a MAC google casio driver for Macs by 3rd party.

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.

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...

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).

Replace the batteries and get an AC adapter for it! These do NOT work when voltage os too low.
