Brilliant! Twenty-eight years ago in a fit of generosity, I bought my wife a Yamaha Clavinova PF P100. About eighteen months ago the F# key stopped working. Tonight we were deciding where to buy a new keyboard from when my wife discovered your channel, with some skepticism I tried your advice and it worked, I gave it a good bearing and it's perfect! Nobody is more amazed than me! Thanks so much, you saved me thousands of pounds!

I've fixed things for people for a long time, my own things are a different story. I'll let stuff sit for years if I can work around an issue, which I've had a single dead key that's shaped my music writing for the the past year at least. I finally decided to fix it and look up a few quick fixes before opening it up and checking out the circuits. I'm so glad that I did, bc I wouldn't have thought a simple pat on the edge would be enough to knock whatever was blocking the connection loose, but it was. What a time saver! Thanks for the tip.

@adrianpena8362 11 ай бұрын

@@martinmty07That is true. If he doesn’t have respect for beautiful instruments and his partner then I don’t know what his issue is. However, I don’t think dumping him right away would be necessary. Maybe he just has to realize his actions and take note on that, while also apologizing. When he still doesn’t mind his mistakes with time then he has to be too immature for this woman. People deserve to be treated appreciated and acknowledged regardless. Well said👍

I was just reading up on the internal schematics of the circuity to try to figure out which resistor or cable ribbon I was gonna have to replace but now I don't have to deal with all that thanks to "this one weird trick" lmfao.

No lie about two seconds ago I was freaking out that some of my keys had just stopped registering on my Yamaha dgx-230 keyboard screen when I press them and no sound was coming out. I did exactly what he said, just tap the keyboard with some medium force around the whole thing with your hand and it worked wow. Saved me so much stress. I did also find out though during my research that the inside of the keyboard piano gets super dusty and you can unscrew it and vacuum it out but I know some people are kinda scared about it like me but I’d rather not have my keyboard be unplayable either so we gotta do what we gotta do to take care of our instruments. There are videos showing how to do it if this video doesn’t fix your particular problem. You just need a screwdriver/vacuum. Good luck everyone on figuring out your instruments’ issues. I know this can be tough to deal with and find answers to without going to a repair shop. Also thank you to the video’s creator for making this because at first I thought he was trying to be funny but it actually does work. I’m thinking that the logic is probably that some dust or debris might be in the way of the electronics pieces and this is a way to loosen it and get it out of the way without opening the piano

I can't believe this worked! I have an old Yamaha PSR-273 that I use for MIDI input next to one of my music workstations and a few days ago all the G/F# keys stopped working in all octaves except the top octave. I assumed it was something electronic from a lightning storm that day. I was skeptical this would help in my case, but on a whim I decided to give it a go, put it on its side, and slapped all the keys like you did. I actually saw some fine dust/particles coming out. I put it back on the stand and voila! Everything worked first try. Thanks so much for spreading this information.

I was originally following another tutorial that said to take the piano apart. So I took off the back cover with a million screws and got lost. Found this video afterward and I’ll admit I wasn’t even going to try this. It seemed ridiculous. Let’s just say I ended up being mad at myself for not finding this video first. Instead, I spent an hour doing and undoing all these screws when I could’ve just banged it into working again in the first place!! Thank you so much for this surprisingly helpful video.
