1 Introduction
Mattel Electronics manufactured one model of electronic home model pinball machine. Mattel no longer has any manuals, information, or parts for this machine.
2 Games
- Las Vegas, 1977, 4 players
3 Technical Info
Mattel issued two manuals for "Las Vegas" pinball, an owner's manual and a service/parts manual.
Owner's Manual is available to download here: http://mattelhomepin.blogspot.com/p/users-manual.html
Las Vegas pinball machine is covered by the now expired patents number 4162793 (game computer board) and 4203602 (metal ball used as a switch between two "hot" contacts).
4 Problems and Solutions
4.1 Power Problems
4.2 Solenoid Problems
4.3 Lamp Problems
4.4 Switch Problems
The original "ball and chain" tilt assembly is very flimsy and not very good. It is suggested to replace it with a Williams # A-15361 Tilt Assembly for much better operation since it uses standardized parts.
You can also use these Marco Specialties parts along with two 6-32 wing nuts to make a complete tilt assembly:
(1) # 04-10346 and (1) # 20-6502-A
