Default Yamaha Piano pedal mechanism

On 8/25/2009 9:12 PM Sylvia Else spake thus:

The sustaining pedal on my Yamaha electronic piano is become rather
flaky. Sometimes it doesn't sustain when pressed.

So I disassembled the piano enough to get at the mechanism, (removed 12
screws, and 6 bolts), and was rather surprised to see that the business
end consists of a potentiometre.


You don't actually spell that thing "-metre", do you? Please tell me you
don't.
