Sustain pedals are switches that are normally open or normally closed. Try plugging a 1/4" jack into the sustain footswitch socket, see if it makes a difference. Its possible that the connection at the jack should be closed but is open - or vice versa. A bit of Googling should reveal what the Synth is expecting to see and allow you to experiment a little. Once you know what is required, you might even want to get a sustain pedal!

I just bought a CZ-5000 on eBay that stated "everything works!" but when it arrived, the keys act as if sustain pedal is jammed on, but no pedal is hooked up. Each key remains sustained as others are hit....obviously not working.
Where are there repair shops that can do the repair on this instrument?
Thanks
