Quoted from SealClubber:

With the game off, Clean the leaf contacts by squeezing and sliding a business card between the contacts. You may have to unbolt the assembly to get to it. I don't remember. Then make sure the leaf contacts are about 1/16" apart. Basically, almost touching but far enough so they won't register by shaking the machine or something.

Quoted from SealClubber:

You shouldn't have to unsolder the target to adjust the gap. A leaf bending tool is preferred but there are other ways to do it.

Quoted from dr_nybble:

For reference, it is easy to access the Death Star target. Remove the two screws that hold the metal part with the motor, it lifts right off the black plastic sliding assembly that holds the target.
Then the switch is exposed and it can be lifted off the black sliding mechanism by removing two screws (that have nylon lock nuts on the back).
Anyone know what the two screws showing on that metal bracket are for? Seem to be attached to nothing.

Hopefully this Pinwiki article will help.

Quoted from dr_nybble:

The switch and target face plastic are all one piece like this: http://www.pinballlife.com/index.php?p=product&id=3357
You may not need to unscrew the target to clean it (but not super hard to do). Check also that the target is not jammed against the plastic frame and that it can freely close the switch contacts when a ball hits it.

Quoted from williams:

No, it is riveted. But the switch screws to the base like any other target. Two small screws.

Quoted from BrianZ:

It's not hard to do. I've done it 3-4 times. I have replaced the target before. The article above covers it well.
As others stated, clean the contacts with a business card. Would also slightly adjust the gap between lead switches.
If you have problems, let us know...

Quoted from gweempose:

Being a new pin owner with no experience in fixing this kind of stuff can be intimidating. At some point, though, you just have to dive in and get your hands dirty. That's the only way you will ever learn. Just make sure to turn the game off before working on it ...
