T1 Display Bezel yellow: normal or in need of cleaning?

One of the cursor down plastic button pushing bit is broken on my T1's display bezel so I order a used bezel online to replace it. While the one on my Korg is clear the replacement has a light yellow tint on it. It looks uniform so I'm curious if some of these came from the factory like this or if ...

Do you have a working floppy drive in your T1? I bought a factory sound disk, then discovered my drive was busted, and then ordered a new drive which comes with another factory disk. If interested I can sell you one for cheaper than they are listed on eBay.

Replacing Korg T1 floppy drive - questions

Hello, I'm slowly repairing an old Korg T1 I found in the garbage. It looks like the previous owner spilt some liquid that got into the floppy drive... there's a bunch of rust on the cover and in particular around the head motor. While the disk spins up the head motor doesn't move, so I'm assuming ...

I'm not familiar with a Korg T1 but to me it seem that this 'connector' LOOKS like a real connector but it isn't one... the cable seems to be soldered directly (leading through the plastic housing) to the pcb. You may look at the other end of that cable to see if there's a REAL connector which can ...

Other than this and a dead display back light I thought it might be an easy repair since it sounds like its common for tac buttons to fail overtime. I've unscrewed ...
