C3 DKV Mark IV failure

C3 DKV Mark IV failure

2019-02-07 by gward1211@...

Hello all

I have a C3DKV Mark IV which is 6 years old and has given up the ghost. I turned it on and a fairly loud bang came out of the speakers and none of the lights on the control panel illuminate. The only lights underneath are a solid green light on the power supply and a blinking green light (2 second intervals) next to the solid light. Looks like a power supply failure.

Any suggestions.

Kind regards


Geoff Ward

Good morning, everyone.

If you live in the U.S., I recommend give Yamaha Piano Service a call: Yamaha Piano Service: (800) 854-1569 between 8:30-5:00 PST.

Regards,
PianoBench

Thanks George, but I live in Australia.  If the power supply has failed, would the green lights I mentioned still be lit?  I am attempting to contact a Yamaha tech in Sydney.

 

Kind regards

Hi, Geoff.

I don’t have that level of technical competence. However, if you have trouble connecting with Yamaha in Australia, I may be able to help.

Regards,
George

The blinking LED in normal Power supply is as shown in the attached figure.

I guess you can get error log and so try to  enter the service center mode from the controller and trace Service centre--Data base--Log view--All error--Order by date and look at the error log.
