Topic: Please give me some advice to adapt sustain port.

I have the old piano but now sustain is break and don't find new sustain to change. My piano uses 5 pin port for sustain. Can I adapt this port to 1/4" port like a new piano? sorry for bad English grammar.

Re: Please give me some advice to adapt sustain port.

Step 1. Find circuit diagram for both pedals. From your question it even not known what piano/pedal model you use.
Step 2. Ask a question how to adapt one circuit to another. Or make it yourself.

You should contact Kawai support for pedal replacement, I suppose.
