Sticking Damper

My Damper is sticking. Have tried a different pedal and still sticky. Has anyone had this problem and what's the fix?

I too have had this problem, but am still searching for a solution. Any luck yet?

Go into Global mode, to the Foot tab, and change the polarity of your damper pedal.

Thanks for the reply. I've actually tried that, but I think my problem is different.
When the notes sustain after releasing the pedal, I can stop their sustaining by slightly moving the pedal input (at the input jack) up or down. To me this seems like a loose input, but I don't know much about that.

Also, when my Korg turns on, it says I have a low Battery Voltage for Calendar IC. Soon I will go get another battery, but do you think this may fix the pedal issue? (it doesn't seem like it would but I thought I would ask).

Thanks!

Possibly the jack's lose and needs to be tightened? I doubt the battery has anything to do with it. You might also want to borrow a pedal from someone that is known to be working; it could be a problem with your pedal as well.
