I would call or email Yamaha and put those questions to them.
You'll find contact names and numbers on page 120 of the
Owner's Manual.

My best guess is that being a late model unit, replacement parts
are still available. I know some Korg Wavestation users have
made a DIY repair for the WS backlight using modified
replacement parts for the O1/WD series. So with that in mind -
anything is possible :-)
