| TMNTfan:
Hello, I just received a dedicated Konami Turtles cabinet (not Turtles in Time) Everything is working fine, but I wanted to clean the glass on the inside and I just don't see the trick to opening it. When I open the back I can ofcourse reach the PCB and with a stick (haha) I can reach the clamps that release the control panel, but I'm wondering how I can get the glass panel off? There must be a system, right? (other than unscrewing everything and getting the monitor out. I just dont wanna risk damaging the cab) I hope anyone has a solution? Thanks in advance, TMNTfan. P.S. I also have a generic playscene cabinet and there you can unscrew a panel under the control panel, release the clamps, swing the panel back and just take the glass off. |

This is a TMNT cab rather than a Stern Turtles, right ? I don't have one of the former, but I would imagine that there must be some retaining mechanism, perhaps tied into the CP. Pics might help. Cheers. |

from the coin door, open the latches you saw (don't do it from the back cover). After lifting the control panel open you'll see a piece of metal at the bottom of the glass that you remove. The glass comes right out. |

Thanks for your quick replies. This is the Konami Turtles cab Here is a pic: http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?letter=T&game_id=10050 When I open the coindoor (beneath the control panel, I don't see the latches. There is immediately a ceiling of wood with the tube for the coins coming through it. Also, I don't see any screws, and it won't budge (should I slide it back, push it up?) earlier, when I opened the latches from the back (with the stick), I even got the control panel off. davieboynj, I know what you mean by the piece of metal holding the glass, but there are the coin slot and start buttons attached to it + I can't reach the bolts because it's behind the glass and very close to the monitor. (I don't wanna die) ;o) If you really need pictures, tell me what I should photograph and I will find out how to post them on this board.. Thanks though, TMNTfan |

OOPS! Ignore my comments - - They were for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles cabinet. But doesn't that make you TMHTfan? :) one question - - when they play the song in the beginning, does it actually say 'hero' or did they leave it 'ninja'? |
