Hi Pat, A little more information is required. What is the Model #, of the organ. This would enable us to determine if it was a tone generator model, tubes or IC's. It sounds like it is one with a tone generator. They need to be oiled with the proper oil. Under no circumstances use WD-40 or the like, as it tends to 'gum' up the threads, that lead the oil to the bearings. If the generator is functioning, then next check would be the tubes, starting with the rectifier tube. Oh yes this is after you have initially checked all the wire connections. If you can't find it by yourself, then go to http://www.mitatechs.com/, and get a tech. Hope this helps. Regards, John M.
