    • You will be removing 17 11mm screws with a JIS-1 screwdriver to detach the back of the keyboard from the front.

    • You will then remove the four screws that are a little hidden, circled in orange.

    • Next, remove the two screws in the middle of piano, as well as the three screws on the top of the piano, circled in yellow.

    Nice tutorial here. Thank you for color coding the screw removal process.

This guide also works for the Casio LK-175.

The keys are in small groups and you will need to purchase the correct ones. Unfortunately, the ones I received from a seller did not match. I think he thought the part was compatible between my keyboard and the one he pulled them from. I very carefully tried super-gluing the key back onto it's section and so far so good (a few hours). Hopefully, the repair will hold.

Thank you for the guide Samantha.
