Hi!
None of the combination pistons on the Hammerwood 1990s Makin are now working. . . a sudden attack of malaise . . . but all else is in order.
Has anyone else experienced a similar problem? Is there any easy solution to look for?
Best wishes

Hi,
I'm only guessing here but I wonder if the settings could have got corrupted, so you would need to try reprogramming the pistons. ( this assumed that the pistons are programmable and the settings may be held in battery backed ram or maybe flash rom ? )
if they are not programmable maybe there could be a loose cable to them ?
I think you mentioned you have the service info, that should make it easier to track things down.

Hi
PSU issues, failed backup battery (easy to check if they will reprogramme - only need to set one to try it), loose connections, component failure - in that order.

Hi
I had this once pn a later 1980s Makin there was a back up battery that had failed, its quite easy to replace, if you ring David F I am sure he will tell you where the battery is located in the Hammerwood organ.

Wow, nice donor console for a five manual Hauptwerk installation, come on you know you want to ;D
(ducks for cover)
Hope you get it fixed soon, David!
