Walt,
I'm not familiar with the 990, but it has to be something in common with the entire system. If there are switches (pushbuttons) to select "Main" speakers and "Antiphonal" speakers, make sure they are not dirty or broken. Check them both.
Just a thought...perhaps not worth thinking.

Subject: [analogorgans] Rodgers Specification 990


I have just inherited the chore of resurrecting a Rodgers Specification 990 organ at our church. It was working about six months ago, but when they went to use it for Christmas, there was no sound at all.

I am an electronics geek (mostly computers but some TV and HI-FI servicing from 30 years ago) and not an organist.

I'm looking for any kind of schematics or service manuals. There are a few on eBay but not for this model.

The organ turns on, the lights on the console work, the presets seem OK, and the amplifiers are all apparently operating, but no sound from anything. I have yet to remove the back from the console.

Any help or advice would be most welcome!
