Yamaha DGX 620 Keys for F# and C not working

by Phil
(Auckland)

I have a Yamaha DGX 620 Grand Piano and the F# and C keys have stopped working when I press them. Can this be easily fixed? Can someone guide me on opening up the keyboard to check for a loose connection, etc.
Thanks in advance for any help you ca give.

Hello Phil,

First! Unless you are skilled in electronics and know what you are doing DO NOT open your piano.
You problem, if all C's and F#'s are not working it looks like a contact pad (for a better word) underneath the keys is broken. If that is the case, it can easily be replaced by a Yamaha repair person with the right tools.

Dear Phil: I just got through posting a message (see Q & A, left of this message)recommending Forum participants to refrain from DIY repairs. My thinking is that a case like yours should be fixed by a professional. It is far better to be happy with a repaired instrument than frustrated with one that you probably will fail to restore for the reasons I gave in my post. Good luck.

I have the same DGX 620 and the 3 lower C's and the 2 lower F and G sharps quit working.. I was playing today and the 2 lower D's all of a sudden quit midsong! FRUSTRATING. It was a "refurbished" instrument, its just barely a year old -- I hope its warrantied!

I have a Yamaha DGX-620 as well, and the F# below middle C has stopped working. What a pain.

Hi to you all,

It seems to be a common problem with the DGX 620.
I have heard from various sides that Yamaha will deal with it even when a keyboard is out of guarantee. (I suppose not when it is 10 years old!)
Advice: contact your local dealer and ask what the possibilities are.

Good luck

Hello, I had such a problem, but I had solved it by pressing c and f# simultaneously. I hope it works for you too! Regards, Kelly
