I have Roland KR4500 and it plays off and on .
The sound comes and goes
Any suggestions?
I don’t have the manual?
Anyone knows where to fix it?
What can I do?
What can I sell it for?
Thanks!!

This model is old and if you search you will find many others who have already had their units fail. SImply, it is electronics which is coming to the end of life. The cost of repair versus the low value of the unit makes it not worth repairing. YMMV Don aka B3maniac

Hi, I don't know if you have already binned yours?! But i have found a service manual that has schemetic diagram and all parts names!! Even what capacitator used!! So one must be able to repair and make good yours..... an 94yr old neighbors has this same kr4500 with the same sort of problem so I searched on the internet for solutions and I fround the service manual. I will try to identify the problem and repair his. Hope you can too if you have not binned it.
Good luck.
