Disklavier

Have you tried unplugging the unit and then plugging it back into the wall outlet - not a surge protector?  Is the wall outlet grounded - as in a 3-prong outlet?  Is this a grand piano?  Sometimes Mark III Grand piano Disklaviers wake up thinking they are uprights.  What exactly does the opening screen say?  Is the volume knob on the left box under the keys turned up?  Is the keyboard turned on - as is keyboard out turned on?

MarkIII Disklaviers have always been my favorite, but sometimes they can be strange little beasts.  Also check the fuses.  Do you have a Disklavier technician?

I personally keep my Disklavier unplugged from the wall until I am ready to use it.  Best surge protection I know of !

So I'm not sure what to do short of investing in expensive power protection or pulling the plug on the piano when not using it.
