Franklin Ampico Doesn't Play
By Ed Copeland

I am hoping that someone out there has a possible diagnosis for my
Franklin Ampico.  The problem is that it doesn't play any notes while
in play (but the sustain and soft pedal mechanisms move), otherwise
everything else seems to be fine.  The reservoirs (in the top, on the
left and right side, and on the pump) do not collapse while the piano
is in play, and I can't here a massive leak.

Any suggestions, or is this a "call the technician" problem?
