Problem with ribbon controller 1 on JP-08

Post by Connor94 »

The ribbon controller on my JP-08 is broken and is stuck at the lowest point, making the synth out of tune.
It's going to cost about $130 to get fixed by Roland, so I thought I'd ask if anyone has experience with this problem and knows how to fix it without sending it to a tech.
Here is a video of the problem: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_9xmMImUcg

I took apart the synth and tried to to see if there was dust under case on top of the ribbon controller. I wiped a bit of dust off, but it looks like that wasn't the problem.

Thanks for any help!
