Trying to fix my Casio SK-1
<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Today I plugged a 12v cord into my keyboard instead of the 7.5v it's supposed to use. </p> <p>I had thought it used a 12v until it wouldn't turn on and I smelled burnt/hot plastic/electronics.</p> <p>I'm not sure what's been killed on it. I've took it apart and just from looking at it I cant see any burned capacitors or transistors. It will turn on (with the correct cord) after a few tries but it seems none of the buttons work. It makes weird noises out of the speaker/headphones when it's on but I dont know what's causing it.</p> <p>I suspect it's either one of the chips or one of these capacitors cause they seems to be the sources of the smell. Tried using a multimeter on it but it wont work so I cant check it right now, just trying to figure out what might've died. Also have looked at the service manual for this but without the multimeter I cant do much with it.</p> <p>I hope I can fix this but I'm afraid it's dead. Found it for $10 and I really dont want to buy another one for the prices it's going for now since I only mess around with it here and there. </p> <p>Just posting here to see if anyone else has had the same problem and knows how to fix it (if it can be) before I spend hours trying to figure it out.</p> <p>Thanks</p> </div><!-- SC_ON --> submitted by <a href="https://www.reddit.com/user/firstaidssd"> /u/firstaidssd </a> <br/> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/o60y1v/trying_to_fix_my_casio_sk1/">[link]</a></span> <span><a href="https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/o60y1v/trying_to_fix_my_casio_sk1/">[comments]</a></span>
