Getting enough balls into the atom smasher for the 5-ball multiball is tough. Took me forever to figure out what the lower right button below the flipper did (alternates the location of the LAB lights). Good luck! It is a pretty cool game.

It'll be my second if everything works out. Looks like a nice game to sharpen my skills with! I’m going to look at one of these pins this weekend. It’ll be my second if everything works out.

Please tell me you replaced it for the safety of your board. :-) On my in-law's Mata Hari I replaced the shrink-wrapped 3-cell rechargeable battery packs with a battery pack from Radio Shack, a diode, and three regular alkaline batteries. The idea is to get the batteries off of the circuit board where they can do damage when they corrode on you. ;-) Here's the Marvin3m (pinrepair.com), and Pinball News links about battery replacement. There are lots of wonderful troubleshooting help at the Marvin3m page for your era Bally board as well. http://www.pinrepair.com/6803/index.htm#corrosion http://www.pinballnews.com/learn/battery.html You mention there was no corrosion damage from the battery.
