Almost finished putting back together my Dirty Harry. Full teardown, clearcoated the playfield etc. Does anyone know what this writing means on the playfield under the apron - “001”? Do any others have any writing like this on their playfield? Thanks

Thanks! Yes, full topside/underside teardown and rebuild. The magnet had mushroomed and thinned/worn down that area but not as bad as some others I’ve seen. I filled that area and installed a Cliffy ring protector. The game was super filthy. Dirtiest game I’ve torn down. Complete disassembly of all parts including cabinet parts, coindoor etc. Ultrasonic cleaned and tumble polished the metal etc. Playfield was clearcoated and polished with the 3M pefect it system. Game has been in pieces for 2 years so I’m very excited to finally play this again soon!!

Yeah you’re right. It does look more like an 8.
Quoted from bssbllr:The first picture is not mine but I do have writing on mine on top as well it is red. The underneath of mine is on the second picture. It has a number as well. I read were it has to do with production.I believe they would do like 80 a day. They would write the number they were on when the day ended. There is some literature out there on the net. Here is a site that talk about it.

Thank you for the information!
Quoted from bssbllr:Freaking bad design. I was gonna try something I posted back a while ago but didn’t get to it. topkat i believe put shims at the shooter lane coil and I believe it helped the situation which he also posted back in the thread.
Thanks, yeah terrible design. I just installed shims at the shooter coil and dremmelled the opto bracket above the magnet. I put a piece of 3M double sided tape overhanging the bracket damage, so if the ball does hit the bracket the foam like tape will act more like a cushion instead just bashing metal straight on. We’ll see how it works.

I still need to order a few targets and some target foam. I can’t seem to find where this red wired connector fits. Anybody know if this connector is unused? Or what it connects to?
Also do the playfield slide assemblies need to be greased? Which kind of lubricant?
