Kurzweil Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 I just bought a used PX-5s, probably from 2016. BANK, 0, 2, 3, 5, 7, & 8 LEDs all work. I have yet to see 1, 4, 6, and 9 indicators come on. It already seemed strange that the top row has independent lights (bank and 1 thru 4) while the second row integrates the lights with the buttons (5 thru 9). This model is quite different from my past Privias (100, 310, and 330) but I suspect that I have four dead LEDs. Fortunately, the display duplicates the information but it's a mite disappointing. Note that the buttons themselves work fine. Giving it some thought and the regular pattern of the missing lights (1 is above 6 and 4 is above 9) leads me to believe that there is a fault and it is in the wiring to the display/button assembly. It looks like a matrix issue. I had an issue with a Kurzweil PC3x that turned out to be a connector that had not been pushed all of the way in, presumably during assembly. It caused the unit to occasionally fail to boot and could be temporarily bypassed by a sharp rap upon the case with the hand palm. The likelihood of four failed LEDs is near zero. I love that I play a black keyboard if in right profile and a white one in left profile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
