This sounds like a costly repair..
1)The keys go per octave , so if they are both in the same octave then you only need to change 1 octave.
2)Officially the touch screen is being sold along with the display, the board on the back and its plastics as a module so it is not too cheap.
3)The exit button should just be the smd pushbutton underneath (you can find them in electronic component stores if you have any close to you)
4)If you mean the small pot on the back , disassemble it to see which it has and find the same one on mouser or maybe even your local electronic component store.
For 1 and 2 i would contact an official korg service center or the distributor and ask for the parts.
For 3 and 4 they ll tell you to change the entire boards most likely (which is not wrong given the level of handling and tools it requires to be repaired ).
You can maybe find a replacement touch panel on ebay or other similar source but the quality may not be on par with the official part (which is made specifically for korg by their manufacturer). _________________ ~~~The best keyboard for any player is the one that fits his/her needs!~~~
