  • Here's how I fixed our well-used Yamaha YDP-223 electric piano. It recently began giving random really loud notes or completely dead notes. The fix involves tearing it down to the rubber buttons and cleaning them well with DeoxIT Fader Lube (Amazon link below). It's good as new now!!

    Thanks to this video, I had the confidence to open up our schools Arius to check why some keys were acting strangely. Turned out to be a notebook stuffed behind the keys. Thank you for the video!

    Thank you for this video! Was able to replace a broken key in about an hour with absolutely no experience, using just a screwdriver and a butter knife. 😊

    You are a both a patient man and a handyman. Great job taking apart your YDP-223, cleaning it, and reassembling it. 👍

    I just did this on a CLP-465GP. Same concept. Once cleaned it worked perfectly.

    Hey, greetings from Brazil. My yamaha isn't the same model, but your video provided enough info so that I was able to fix the same problem! Thank you very much.

    Thank you for posting this video. It is the best video that I have been able to find
    I've got a P90 Yamaha with 1 dead note. The lowest "D" note. The keys are pretty filthy so I assume it has sat uncovered for years!
    This looks like a lot of work, for a note that I would rarely even use, but it is good to know that I can fix it myself if the problem gets worse, or my playing gets much better.

    Hi Colin. I had an issue with our clavinova that my daughter plays. We had the sensitivity controls making about 8 keys play in a forte upon a soft touch. I youtubed a video where a young Asian guy posted a great video and pulled his unit apart and although he was not speaking in english, I was able to follow his video and cleaned the carbon contacts on the orange membrane with alcohol. I repaired every key except the "D" in the third octave is now dead. I was pondering as to whether or not I might be slightly misaligned on one key so it is dead. It wasn't before I fixed the other issue. I considered trying to purchase new membranes but couldn't get any help from Yamaha. They would only send a link to repairers. My closest is 300 klms away. I might try another disassemble and use the fader lube and see how that goes. Another tip I found was that I supported the keyboard off the table each end and this enable me to easily reinsert the membranes. Good the see how to remove the keys though.

      My guess is you've got one of the two buttons misaligned on that D key. I think one of those buttons is off, it gets super loud. If the other button is off, it doesn't make any sound.

    I just bought a 2nd hand YDP181. I love it, but the key cover clatters something awful, when I open and close it. It sounds like it is off track maybe? Like going over a washboard. Anyone have an idea how to fix it?

    I dont understand how the tabs hold the motherboard. I can't get it to "snap" into the tabs, especially with the orange pads sliding down and blocking the tabs I'm assuming this part is necessary as I heard no sound from the keys when I reassembled.

    I have a 5 year old piano which has two loud keys. Such issues should not appear after such a short time. And if they do, they could have made the maintenance a bit easier. I'm not going to buy a Yamaha Piano again.

      It definitely sounds like exactly this problem. Someone would have to take the whole keyboard apart and re-seat the rubber button pads. Probably some dirt got in there, like mine!

    You need piano cover 😅

    • @JoyeMusiccom
      @JoyeMusiccom  Год назад +4

      Yes, we don't use the cover enough. But most of the dirt is from kids eating food or bringing crumbs to the keys. Don't let kids eat near the piano!! But it is also not a good design by Yamaha -- Those crumbs, eraser bits, paperclips, etc. should fall AWAY from the rubber buttons, but instead they fall INTO the buttons. It would be quite easy for Yamaha to make a plastic guard between the keys that blocks crumbs and dirt.
