Uh oh...two dead keys. Anyone?

Post by muzik_guy »

So after this past weekend's gig, I discovered that two of my keys are not responsive to touch. If I strike them firmly I can sometimes get sound, but playing them with any kind of dynamics is going to be impossible. I am pretty certain there is dirt or something on the contacts beneath the keys in question.

I used to disassemble my old Yamaha & clean the contacts whenever I had this problem, but I have zero experience doing this with a TR-76. Has anyone here done this before? What should I expect with regard to accessing them for cleaning? If there's a picture tutorial somewhere online, that would be really helpful :)

I'd be grateful for any input or help!

You might be able to use this as a ref. it says TR and Le are similar.

I thought the keybeds were different in the TR series. The site mentions Le, not TR - but I'm unsure about the Le's keybed, as well. Anyone?
