Yamaha CS80

Thanks David,
 
I did try to remove the keyboard from my CS80 once, but one of the large bolts holding it in was so tight I couldn't turn it, maybe I'll give it another go.
 
Any idea what you do if they have deteriorated? Can you buy replacements? They look like they are a specific size/shape to do the job.
 
Thanks,

The sensors in mine all were fine (actually, it's a really long story). 
However, I have seen sensor boards that looked like they had some kind
of corrosion on the circuit board contacts under the rubber pad,
possibly from the rubber pad decomposing.  They are easy to disassemble
and clean.  Take a look at sensor_guts.jpg under Files on the Yahoo site.
