I have a Yamaha KX-393 deck, and (as visible), the tape door is wonky to the point I can see the bottom of the movement under said door. Any way to fix this? Or is this completely normal? Can't say I've noticed it to be like that before.

Cheers,

Hardly normal Nic (you wouldn't expect it to look like that from new would you? 😉).
You'll probably see more of what you need to see from within - if you remove the top cover.
Check the hinges - look for broken plastic and the travel / fitting of the runners.
It should be obvious why it's slightly ****-eyed.

EDIT: I like the way that asterisks get automatically put into a common, inoffensive term above 🙄 (good old nanny state....maybe I should expect 5 policemen to arrest me).
