Help: My DX7 spent a day in a frigid van after a gig last week. I warmed it slowly but since then, the main and headphone outputs are *very* weak. Memory and sounds are ok but the signal is too low even with massive pre and power amp boosting. Any ideas?

What a loser... replying to my own posting! If anyone's interested, I've solved my problem temporarilly by inserting an additional preamp between my DX's output and my mixer. This is not totally satisfactory and if anyone knows how I might attack my DX's innards I'd appreciate the input.

Okay... this is too much. My outputs came back "full blast" just before sound-check at a gig this weekend. I had just pulled the DX's volume pedal forward with my heel when it popped back to "full health". I like this (having no explanation for the behavior) even less than I liked pumping the output through a cheesy gtr pedal to pump up the signal. If anyone has any clue as to what caused this and may cause it again please clue me in!
Thanks.
