I used to own one of those rare 3 manual G7000 organs...Nothing but trouble...A real nightmare!  Good luck.

   Actually, there's also a very active Lowrey organ group on Yahoo too with folks that would have experience with that organ.

  Hi Martin,

  There is a very active combo organ Yahoo group that has some very knowledgeable techs as members.

  That is if you don't get any help here......

I would clean all contacts, but - how the hell - is it possible to maintain these points? I don“t know how to disassemble this beast. I removed the back and this organ is full of circuits and loudspeakers and a lesley and other strange things. Is there a trick to reach the key-contacts?
