This is not how to fix the squeaking, you are messing with certain regulating factors of the piano if you do this. You need to use some kind of lubricant to fix it. Do not use his tips
I appreciate you sharing this problem with us. I'm experiencing very similar issues however, as other have said, the "fixes" will not help, and can actually cost you a lot of money through regulation and wear issues over time for others mentioning wd40, DO NOT use wd40. many piano techs recommend that you use Teflon powder specifically made for this task
I am no piano tech either but you are wrong about the metal rod making noise. A metal rod on its own does not make noise when it's put under stress as you implied. It makes noise when there is friction. This is easy to fix, but this squeaky part is located on the back of the action so you have to remove it from the piano and set it down to access and squirt wd-40 onto the problem area. I suggest looking for a video on how to remove the piano action from an upright piano and you'll quickly find the problem. This solved it for me! I will post a short video to show it.
Please take down this video and stop teaching people wrong information. Why can't people just stick to what they are experienced in, and only teach when they know what they're doing?
The video should be called: "I haven't got a clue how to fix a squeaking piano pedal"

I removed the whole damper keys section from the piano and the sound is located there. No idea where to squirt on though.
@@katchum th-cam.com/video/TWGkxyew9us/w-d-xo.html see if this helps.
Are you sure it's ok to use WD40?
not a real fix, what you need is lubricate the friction parts which you has not found it
Why did you even post this video?
to get help, but it was better to just buy a new one.
And apparently none of them work, according to your >10 min video. Thanks for wasting my time.
Yes, the real solution is buying a new piano, which I did :)

My piano has pedal noise like this but it did not happen when I just got it however after long time usage pedal noice happened
Time to get a new piano, preferably a grand piano.
So it’s not fixeable? Or those are only ways to fix you show in the video
@@chenw2338 you could replace the whole board at a cost. But I'll just cope with the sound.
It’s a soundboard problem? But you said problem is metal in the video
@@chenw2338 It's the metal that moves the whole board with those dampening keys. You can take that dampening board out and replace it.
Don't try to teach the fixing in such a wrong way!!! You did not fix it at all, and you intended to take the washer to to back :-) funny are you!
