Everything looks good. The little latch in the back has a spring, they can come loose, but yours looks good as the latch is being held up. The two wear tracks on the bottom appear to be buckling up a little a bit but they should lay down when box is inserted.
Check the back of the box at the hole where the latch goes in. There is a plastic spring loaded tab that drops down to release the box and stays up and out of the way when the box is in place. Other than that I don't see anything wrong.


Cash boxes not latching in is a common problem, most times it takes a few tries and sometimes with a little force. I would consider a Velcro strap at the front to hold it in if all else fails.


Also, somewhere in this Universal section should be a thread on jumpering the cashbox switches in the back if your interested.

One other thing. I do not have parts for sale and don't know who has them anymore!
