Dan,

Electrolytics are strange.  Quite often, I run into a
keyboard that has been in storage and powers up fine
for the first couple of weeks and then doesn't work
after a few weeks.  I'm not quite sure why that
happens, but it does and it is very common with
vintage gear.  I strongly recommend rebuilding the
power supply, replacing all caps and re-soldering all
connections if you know what you are doing.  

Your english is fine.
