I did not find a reported problem or a fix for this: for some reason I am able to remove my backglass even though it should be locked. Anybody with a similar problem and what is the fix for this? Thanks for any info!

Quoted from Pinballomatic:Look at the backbox lock to see if the keeper either fell off or is turned the wrong direction.
Hmm - doesn't this look to be ok?
IMG_6134 (resized).JPGQuoted from harryhoudini:Well, this isn't right. I went to start taking off parts to replace the rubber in the starfield and notice that the chest is really loose. Looking down behind it I can see the wood screw that holds it to the playfield isn't tight at all. This isn't the first loose thing I've found, sadly. I figured no problem, tighten it back down and be good. Once I did that the chest still moved and that's when I noticed the crack.[quoted image]
Sorry to ask a question from beside your point, but how did you access the screw tying the chest to the playfield under the chest? Did you have to use some spesific tool?
Quoted from GnarLee:Dauntless I found it was catching on the top deck. Removed deck added 4 #6 nylon washers between bracket and decking to raise it ~1mm problem solved.
I have the problem with Dauntless ship hull hitting the Dauntless top deck, when swinging. I should figure out a way to put the top deck a bit further up.
With reference to the tip above, I presume the washers are placed in the front of the backplate? But I do not understand how it would raise the top deck - it just brings it forward? Can you please explain further? Thanks! Other tips for raising the top deck are welcome of course too.

Here is youtube-video of the problem:
I tried adding 1 x washer for each of the screw, but it did not provide any help, please see the attachment.

Yes - and thank you, bending did the trick atleast for now!
