Hello - I have many sticky keys on my YDP-223 (I've opened up the piano and confirmed the keys were cracked like others have also observed) and instead of replacing 6 or 7 keys (at about $18 per key, that adds up very fast), I decided to replace the entire keyboard. I'm having a tough time figuring out the part # for the replacement keyboard, but I believe it's WG481800 (even though it's listed as the keyboard for older Clavinovas, I believe is also used on the YDP-223). Can anyone please confirm if this is indeed the correct part number? Thank you!

have you tried using the can of air. you can get it at almost any drug store walmart or kmart. just spray the can of air between the keys and they should become unstuck.

Check if it might be dragging on the edge of the case. The restoring force for some of these comes from a silicone rubber dome that is oart of the contact. SOMETIMES the dome fails.
Testimonial: "sounds good but i am a novice with repairs and do not really understand all the terms used. also, i am not sure how to go about fixing or getting repl"

Typically LOTS of screws... concentrate on those around the edge. USE GREAT care and force nothing when removing the cover...and great care of cables between the cover and the base. Mark the cables so you remember the direction they attach.
When you get edge screws out, then gentle lift and see where it seems to be held...
Some of these synths have 50 to take out to get apart. MOST are in plastic bosses and keep track of the size and length as you can put too long a one in the wrong place and crack the boss.
I use a compartmented plastic tray to keep the screws in order.
