Re: [vintagesynthrepair] Korg MS20 patchbay section problems.

2009-10-24 by Bakis Sirros

hi all,

problem solved!
it was that green H5 connector bringing power to the MS20's patchboard PCB.

its other end (going to the mainboard PCB), had been disconnected, during transport i guess.
many thanks for the help,
best regards, :-)
Bakis.

Since all the affected functions/modules reside directly on the KLM-128
board (the patchbay board) I believe that at least one of the supply
voltages is missing (or misbehaving) directly on this board. So my first
attempt would be measuring the supply voltages at various points. I'm not
completely sure but I think the supply enters KLM-128 on connector H4.
