I have a very old (1970s? / 80s) Casiotone 601 Keyboard. It has not been used in a long time! I used it today and it worked fine when plugged in but after approx 10mins started to kick out smoke!
Switched off and opened up keyboard and looked in the area smoke was coming from. There is a cracked Component (Maybe a Capacitor? .022uF?) Part number PME265MB522M. It is on a board that has a direct link to mains supply. I have included a photo. It is the yellow/gold rectangular component next to the round white disc.
I left the keyboard and then plugged in with case open to eyeball where smoke was coming from. The keyboard worked fine and no smoke! , but switched it off after 1min. It may have started smoking if I left it longer?
I am guessing the part mentioned is to blame. There are 2 of these.
However the part number seems to be obsolete. Could someone please suggest an alternative and also advise if I should replace both (just in case?).
Thankyou.
