I used soap and water on the cpu board. The voice board didn't seem to have any acid on it except in one spot where the acid seemed to move along the "jumper ribbon". I cleaned that with a Q-tip,soap and water. It ended up eating traces for a couple of capacitors and a transistor. The "high" and "bend" adjustments are just below this spot so maybe it's gotten to them as well. --- In vintagesynthrepair@yahoogroups.com, "Brian Davies" <brian@...> wrote: > > How did you clean off the battery acid? > > Regards > Brian G3OYU > www.g3oyu.co.uk > > _____ > > From: vintagesynthrepair@yahoogroups.com > [mailto:vintagesynthrepair@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of plastikanimal > Sent: Wednesday, 04 June 2008 08:26 > To: vintagesynthrepair@yahoogroups.com > Subject: [vintagesynthrepair] Korg POLY-61 pitch drift problem > > Hi, I'm trying to repair a POLY-61 for a friend.
