Hey Everyone! I'm SO excited! I just picked up an FS-500 for free,
someone acquired it when they bought a foreclosed house. He said it
didn't work. When I got it home, I fired it up and all I got were
the lights above the registrations. Since, I've bought a service
manual. Checked Every bank of fuses with a tester, and every single
one is good. :(
Yesterday, I checked all the cables into the amps, reseated them,
and still nothing.
Then, to my surprise, I tried playing, and SOUND!!!!!!!! AND,
contacts seem perfect, which makes me believe someone played this
Electone recently! However, none of the registrations light or work
at all. All three keyboards work and pedalboard too.
Since I am NOT familiar with Electone's, I used to have other
organs; Lowrey, Gulbranson, etc., do you have to have a Registration
Pack to make it work?
Anyone can help me? The service guy wants $87.50 + $87.50 +
gas/mileage just for the first hour + parts.
I'd appreciate it VERY VERY MUCH!
Gary
