Loss of sustain, owner borrowed another pedal and a problem in the
keyboard. Tomorrow I will clear the decks ,rig up strops and crane to
open up. But if anyone has been there before and can point to what to
look for and so minimum amount of time with the beast in bits then all
to the good, to get all 7 octaves out of the way as soon as possible



People tread on the sustain pedal cable and beak or dry joint the jack
socket.

It's highly unlikely to be anything other than that.





Except I had one of these keyboards in for repair about 6 months ago where
the sustain didn't work, but that was because the whole PCB had been pushed
into the keyboard.
Someone must have given the sustain pedal jack plug a severe whack, or
perhaps upended the keyboard onto the floor without first removing it.
