My Keylab 88 MkII is injured…
So I recently moved house. I transported the keyboard myself in my car using a pretty rugged soft case that I purchased specifically for the move. There was nothing else in the case with the keyboard. I really don’t know what could have poked the port specifically hard enough to dislodge it, while not marring anything else on the surface of the keyboard at all. I’m totally baffled, and quite upset about it as I thought I’d taken really good care while moving it!
Anyway, I strongly assume that this won’t be covered by warranty, and even if it was, shipping it back to France seems expensive. So, I might as well have a crack at fixing it myself. Anyone have any idea how much of a pain that is?
For reference, I’ve replaced the screen (and a key) in a Yamaha SY-77 before, and that was a complete PITA because of the sheer number of circuit boards that had to be removed, though it didn’t require any soldering on my part. I’m hoping that this unit is a lot more sparse on the inside! I’m mostly worried about how DIY-able the soldering on the board is, and whether or not I’ll be able to properly tell which replacement part I need.
Thanks for your time!
