With no octave keys pressed the wx5 is playing an octave too low

Please have a look at the instruction manual again. The 8ve keys are assignable/editable for up or down. You can change the range of the scale this way. I own a WX7 and a WX5. They both work this way.

Keys stick on yamaha wx11

It must have been dropped. Look to see if one side is bent so as to pinch the key. Gently pry it until it moves. Add lubricant if needed

Yamaha wx5 out of tune (1 tone to low) and pitch

As an electrical engineer, I suspect that one end of the resistance element or the voltage supplied to it is broken. This could be a broken circuit trace on a board or failure of the pitch wheel pot. This is iff the device has a center tapped pot. IF IT DOESN"T (schematics are hard to find on this) then the bias setting for the pitch wheel may be wrong. First thing would be to look if the the wheel has slipped on the control shaft.

Batteries stuck inside

You have two choices, 1 disassemble it yourself(screws on the bottom side) or send it in to be repaired. 2 Here is the recommended place in the U.S. :http://www.patchmanmusic.com/repairs.html Unfortunately they will not ship outside the States. Any good Yamaha dealer should be able to help you though. It is not easy to do yourself unless you have some experience.

I can't get my Yamaha

Reread your manual pages 14 and 15. Note page 14 tells you that "When using a monophonic tone generator such as the VL70m, the Normal Hold and Follow Hold functions CANNOT be used." I have both the WX5 and WX7. I also have both the VL70m and the WT11. The VL70m has a lot of better sounds, is editable and has better effects the WT11 allows you to use both follow modes. Any polyphonic midi keyboard with a midi in jack will allow you to use the follow modes. Read the directions on page 9 of your WX5 manual to hook your WX5 to the keyboard. Set your keyboard to receive all midi channels. I think it is Omni On, Poly. Hope this helps.

My Yamaha psr 2000 when switched on only the blue backlight is getting displayed on the screen and none of the function keys are getting lit up

If your Yamaha PSR-2000 keyboard is turning on and the blue backlight is displayed on the screen, but none of the function keys are lit up and not responding, there may be a few different causes.
  1. Check if the power supply is working properly and is providing enough power to the keyboard. If the power supply is faulty, it may not be providing enough power to the keyboard.
  2. Make sure that the keyboard's internal battery is charged. If the battery is low, the keyboard may not function properly.
  3. Check if the internal fuse of the keyboard is not blown, which is a common problem on electronic devices.
  4. If none of the above steps work, the problem may be with the control board or the display, and the machine may need to be serviced by a professional technician.
I would recommend checking the user manual or contacting the Yamaha technical support for further assistance, as they may have specific troubleshooting steps or solutions for your model.

DIAGRAM KEYBOARD YAMAHA E253?

However, I can suggest some resources where you may be able to find the electronic diagram for your Yamaha E253 keyboard. First, you can check the user manual or technical documentation that came with the keyboard, as it may include a diagram or schematic of the keyboard's internal components. Alternatively, you can try contacting Yamaha customer support or visiting the Yamaha website to see if they have any technical resources or diagrams available for the E253 model. Additionally, there are online forums and communities for musicians and keyboard enthusiasts where you may be able to find more information or connect with other users who have experience with the E253 keyboard. I hope this helps, and good luck with your search!
