Yamaha Clavinova CLP-560 will not play

by Neil
(Australia)

I have a Yamaha Clavinova CLP560 approx 16 years old. It powers up OK but does not play. Default LEDs appear at power-up. Pressing buttons causes correct selection of functions (as indicated by LEDs); however if any key is depressed button selections no longer operate (stays frozen at last selection). All fuses are OK. Voltages to main board look OK (+5 and +12). No sign of power supply problems or visible damage to any parts. Any suggestions appreciated, including where to download free a service manual.

starstarstarstarstar 		CLP-560 suddenly stopped
by: Ronald

We have a Yamaha Clavinova CLP560 of 1995.
After powering up with a loud sound (poef), its is completely silent. No key response. After some 10 min I hear 1 relay clicking and only 1 led is red, but no way to change it.
Checked internally: no burned components, +5V, +12V and -12 V seemed to be present.
Who can give me a suggestion? Where can I download a repair or service manual?

by: Silvano

Water fell into the piano on the right side and now the piano is "dead". Trying to find the manuals for repair. What is likely to have "blown"? -- If you could send the repair manual I would be Oh so Grateful! scolombano@gmail.com

Hi Patrick,

I was hoping that you might also send me the service manual for the Yamaha Calvinova CLP-560. I have one broken key at the low end of the key board I am trying to fix. To have the manual would be sooooo helpful. My email is emilyjohn.3000@gmail.com.

Thank you so much, Patrick,
Emily

I managed to downlad a complete set of service manuals (schematics, diagnostic procedures) for the CLP 560 for free. Send me a message with an email address and I will forward them to you.

I have a broken CLP-560 too, PSU board seems ok, I think it is the DM board too. Debating whether to take a chance on a new DM board for around $500....

by: Anonymous

Determine if it in the audio section or not. Try plugging in headphones. If it plays with head phones, it is a preamp or power amp problem. If not, it may be the DM board. DM boards are no longer available from Yamaha and are basically a single board computer - difficult to troubleshoot without a logic analyzer.

by: Alfred

Dear Neil: Being an avid Ebay shopper, by coincidence today I came across listed Item #350248068796 (Used set of Service Manuals for CLP560 & CLP570). You have to decide if you want to buy them +/- $20.00, plus shipping). The listing ends on 4/30/10. Wish I could be more helpful, but a quick sweep of the Internet shows no freebies. Just one thought, if your unit has contact (rubber) pads under the keys, they could be worn and need replacement. The problems you describe could be caused by such wear. Good luck.
