RE: [vintagesynthrepair] Yamaha QX1

2013-02-25 by geoff james

Hi John , thanks for your reply.This is a tough one----the QX1 is in England , i'm in Australia (ebay sale) .The purchaser stated that the backlight lights up but no data displayed and that the disc drive is turning (making noises). Prior to selling it was working , but maybe the trip to the UK was a little rough. I shipped it with the disc installed.
I,m keen to help the purchaser and any suggestion are greatly appreciated.
Regards
Geoff

Hi Geoff,

I assume that by lighting up you actually mean the backlight lights but there is nothing on the display.

Many thanks
