Disklavier

Hi Bill, So I just did all this and the left pedal started to work a few times and then stopped. Would there be any point in trying again?
Thanks,
Linda

On the back side of the key drive unit under the treble end of the piano, you will find a box that contains the CSP (Central Signal Processor) board. There are a number of RCA connections to this box. Disconnect and re-insert the the two connectors labeled TO I/O BLUE and GREEN. Disconnect and re-insert the connector labeled TO PD. Go to the I/O unit and disconnect and re-insert the BLUE and GREEN connectors located on one end of the I/O Center above the LAN connector.

Then, play this song back 4 or 5 times. If the pedals continue to work, then play your music as you normally do and see if the pedals continue playing or not.
