Re: Prying caps off switches on keyboard

2004-01-02 by Jerry

Thank you Frank and Rob.   I siad pliers sort of tongue in cheek....I'd never do that but 
wasn't sure if you could do it from the outside or if you did need to go into the 
keyboard itself to do this.

No, I've never opened up the music keyboard...only the alpha keyboard and the 
mainframe. This is vergin terriory to me but I'm not bothered by it. I'll set aside the 
afternoon tomorrow and tackle it.

No, I've not got replacement bulbs for it yet. I thoght once I removed the ones that 
have burnt out, I could go to my local Radio Shack elecronics store and see if they've 
got them. 

I'm assuming so long as the right connector is on the replacement, any 5.5, .24volt, 
50ma bulb is ok? If not, an someone recommend a place in teh USa where I can get 
them. It'd be cheaper than ordering from the UK since they are not an expensive item.

Happy New Year!

Jerry
