    Couple of interesting ideas here...I have considered the opening up of the keyboard and looking for the contacts and may persue this road. The problem in this case is that my computers are Macintosh and rather old. If I stuff up the contacts I will lose my irreplaceable equipment and that would...

    remotes

    Had replies at all to my requst for info about remotes. Have purchased and tried unsucesfully a couple of universal remotes to get my Yamaha YST 99CD working.

    Achieving Shock from DC

    I don't know where you are, but here in New Zealand we can purchase a 'Zapper' from most supermarkets and hardware stores. It looks like a tennis racquet and will kill any insect hit by it! I suggest you buy one if these and take it apart to get a circuit. It would be cheaper than actually...

    Yamaha YST-99CD fault

    I'm trying to repair a FM/AM radio. It is a brilliant machine and I've owned it for some years. It is a Yamaha YST-99CD. The fault at the moment is memory, switching it off loses every station programmed into it and re-tuning is necessary.I cannot recognise the chip responsible for memory, can...

    Roland Keyboard Works for 1 min... then dies

    A quick check....can you test the power input? if the voltage dropper has been replaced with one of lower amperage than the genuine one then the result can be exactly as you are getting. Regards Deigh
