Hi Electric Piano Forum Members,
I have a question that I'm hoping someone might be able to answer. I have a suitcase Rhodes (not mine) that lives at my studio, and due to Covid, it hasn't seen much action the past couple of years. I plugged it in a couple of days ago and it exhibited the following symptoms:
It powered up fine. The red indicator lamp next to the volume knob, however, almost instantly dimmed, as did the volume. (It lasted maybe two seconds.) Power stays on, but there's no real volume and that lamp is definitely dim. If I unplug the 5 pin connector and plug it back in, the result is the same as powering it off and on from the power switch.
I was still able to go out one of the accessory lines to another amplifier for that session, but I'd like to get the thing working properly again.
Does anyone recognize these symptoms?
I made a video of it. Link: https://youtu.be/bR5jWJk8lFo
Thank you very much!
