- Today I am repairing a couple broken keys on my Roland FP-1 digital piano. The keys are designed to feel and react like a real piano. I show how this is mechanically done and walkthrough the repair of two broken keys. Hope you enjoy!

What an EXCELLENT VIDEO ! Thanks to you, I was able to repair my Roland and get it playing perfectly again. Your video exceeds expectations and I highly recommend it! Thanks a million this video was sooooo helpful ! Thanks again!
Thank you so much for making this video! So glad we avoided a trip to the repair shop and reinforced our love of DIY projects. Exactly what the doctor ordered!
Wow, thanks SO much! Two of my keys didn't spring back up at all. I tore apart my Roland keyboard and found two identical broken pieces like yours but couldn't find out what they were called at all. I image searched a picture I took of the side view (basically your thumbnail) and your video came up! The exact fix I needed!
Thanks, that was a very useful video. Sad, that you don't make any repair videos anymore. Wish you the best
An excellent repair and a very interesting video. Thank you for taking the time to record your work.
Damn that view as the hammers come towards you was so satisfying
Thanks for showing me how to fix my broken keys of my 600 .
What a shame you stopped making these great videos
Thanks for showing me how to take the keys off. Did so and cleaned it out now it plays fine.
Hey Larry, Thanks for this! I needed it to see how those ribbons went in and out.
Great work 💯🔥
Thanx for making this video !
This is so random but still interesting
Taking notes ✍🤔
It is very interesting to see how plastic action looks like after some (probably) intensive use. I am wondering if it is an older PHA-4 type action. It is actually quite troubling to see that this is a toy action, in a sense.
Thank you for the video.

Ps. I never had any of my digital pianos longer than a year 😊. It is amazing to see that such an old digital piano would even be used anymore
Thank you so much for your help, it was really helpful! May God bless you!
Brought back to life!!
Thank you!
THANK YOU, thank you for this very helpful RECORDING. Regards.
That Cinderella fit was satisfying
This is a terrific video. Thank you very much.
Thank you for such a great video! Any chance you can tell me how well this repair is holding up after several years? I have a friend who needs his Roland piano repaired and I've been searching everywhere for some good long lasting repair ideas to help him out. 😄
Very useful - thank you!
9:09 thank you so much for showing how to fix this.
What kind of grease do you use for Piano HP-147? 3:26
Great video , thank you.
Thanks for the Video; it was very helpful.
My Rodgers C-100 just developed a reproducible issue.
In the left hand (bass clef), My wife, the musician in the family, will get a bizarre loud sound if she plays a (B, Em, another B chord) and adds any combination of Ab, G, or Gb notes.
It only happens with those combinations.
I think it's a failing IC board, but I thought I'd ask if anyone else has run into this problem.
Thanks!
Ooh i love your intro
👍Great video!! So clearly shown! My 94 yr old neighbor has a roland kr 4500 with 1 sticky key which does not bounce back. Your video provides just the right cure!!
There is another problem with this keyboard.....
It makes strange echoy sound when turned on as if the sustain paddle was depressed. It would stop if I turned off then on again. Can you help? I really would like to repair this for him as this is the only entertainment he has.
Who cares how old your neighbour is ?? 🤷♂️..your mental
I still own one of these and have owned several models with those hammer weights that crack/break like that. The action is great until they break. Seems like Roland should have been able to have made them from a material that doesn't crack so easily - even if you order new hammers they will arrive cracked from the factory. Good luck but I think you'll find the epoxy won't hold for long.
@@DirectAutomate how do you get the lead weight inside the 3D printed part?
Thanks, very interesting. Seems like those metal inserts where they attach to the plastic are covered in stress cracks. I bet this is the same action that is in my FP30X - this doesn't fill me with confidence!
Hey. Great video, was very interesting.
My yamaha synth doesnt play A of every octave. When I hold they key long (for about 5sec) it sounds off but the sound is very abrupt.
Any ideas what could I look for? Or is it junk and not worth the hassle?
Surely one could design and have 3d printed in ABS a substitute for these? Or at least some kind of splint that would work?
Do you know if these are the same on the KR-3000? Also has anyone made a 3D printable version?
If two are broken and full of cracks, the rest are cracked and about to break as well. Better to replace the entire set, no?
Our piano is broken/fried because iy was 110v but my son's friend forced it to plug into the 220v power outlet. It blew up. Is that fixable?
thanks
Great video. Where do I purchase repair parts for my Roland fp-5?
Nice
Its a shame replacement hammers for the older Roland's are like hens teeth ( hard to find)..hows the epoxy holding up ?
Doesn't the expoxy change the key weight? Would superglue be ok to use, it wouldn't change the weight as much if at all.
No.
Epoxy or superglue - makes no difference. It will hold for awhile but then it will let go because of the type of plastic used. If you just play at home once in a while it'll hold up for awhile but for someone who plays hours per day, those weights will come loose again
Great Video.. but no one ever shows which screws to loosen to open the cover.... that's where I'm stuck
I'm about to try it, but if you found out can you also tell me?
@@jelliot1014 LOL I just undid the screws around the outside. And it came off perfectly. BUT ... if you glue them use glue around the FAT part sparingly or it won't fit back inside. Roland gave VERY LITTLE clearance for that part to fit back in. I ended up glueing the pieces and the sanding the sides down a bit so they can fit back in.
@@kimjohnson313 Yeah I noticed the lack of clearance for the screws as I undid them. But yeah I got to the internals with no problems
@@jelliot1014 The lack of Clarence I had was getting the hammer weights back in position. Lol. Took a sander to them.
You didn’t show how to take the top off to gain access to the keys 😂
Cinderella fit!!!

The FP-30 has metal hammers but the FP-30X has plastic ones? How can both be called PHA4? That is a clear downgrade.
This is not fp30x I believe.
@@gangwu4541 You are right.
Nice Job But you should had clean the keyboard while you were at it.....Just saying !
Don't bother next time.
your audio levels are inconsistent, and also a bit too quiet
Your audio level is perfect and not too quiet at all!
