Important things to note:
Laying cables in between and underneath bricks
Cables can fit in between and underneath LEGO® bricks, plates, and tiles
providing they are laid correctly between the LEGO® studs. Do NOT forcefully
join LEGO® together around cables; instead ensure they are laying comfortably
in between each stud.

CAUTION: Forcing LEGO® to connect over a cable can result in damaging the
cable and light.
Connecting cable connectors to Expansion Boards
Take extra care when inserting connectors to ports of Expansion Boards.
Connectors can be inserted only one way. With the expansion board facing up,
look for the soldered “=” symbol on the left side of the port. The connector side
with the wires exposed should be facing toward the soldered “=” symbol as you
insert into the port. If a plug won’t fit easily into a port connector, do not force it.
Incorrectly inserting the connector can can result in bent pins inside the port
or possible overheating of the expansion board when connected.

Connecting cable connectors to Strip Lights
Take extra care when inserting connectors to ports on the Strip Lights.
Connectors can be inserted only one way. With the Strip Light facing up, ensure
the side of the connector with the wires exposed is facing down. If a plug won’t
fit easily into a port connector, don’t force it. Doing so will damage the plug and
the connector.
Installing Bit Lights under LEGO® bricks
and plates.
When installing Bit Lights under LEGO® pieces, ensure they are placed the
correct way up (Yellow LED component exposed). You can either place them
directly on top of LEGO® studs or in between.

OK, Let’s Begin!
1.) Lift up the headlight covers and remove the two headlight sections as shown
below.

Take the left headlight and disconnect the trans clear round plates then take a
White 15cm Bit Light and with the cable facing down, place it over the top left
stud as shown below, with the cable laid in between studs. Secure it in place by
reconnecting one of the trans clear round plates over the top.
2.) Take another White 15cm Bit Light and using the same method as in
previous step, install it to the top right stud.

Install another 2x White 15cm Bit Lights to the two bottom studs as shown
below:
3.) Bring the four Bit Light cables together at the bottom of the headlight

section, then twist/wind them around each other 2-3 times to secure the cables
together. Ensure you hold the headlights in between your thumb and index
finger when twisting the cables to prevent the trans round plates from
popping off.
4.) Repeat the above steps to install 4x White 15cm Bit Lights to the right
headlight section.

5.) Take the 12-Port Expansion Board and connect all the lights from the two
headlight sections to it. Take your AA Battery Pack and insert 3x new AA
Batteries to it. Connect the battery pack cable to the expansion board, then
turn it ON to test the 8 lights from the headlights are working OK.

Note: If you experience any issues with the lights not working and suspect an
issue with a component, please try a different port on the expansion board to
verify where the fault lies (with the light or expansion board). To correct any
issues with expansion board ports, please view the section addressing
expansion board issues on our online troubleshooting guide.
Disconnect the lights and battery pack from the expansion board, then
continue to twist wind the cables from each headlight around each other so
that the four cables from each headlight become one larger cable.

6.) Take the left headlight section and feed the cables through the space
behind it (over the black horizontal technic bar) before securely reconnecting
the headlight in place.

Repeat this step to reconnect the right headlight section.

7.) Turn the car over and pull both groups of cables out. Connect the right
group of cables to the 12-Port Expansion Board, then feed the expansion board
underneath the following middle section. Pull the expansion board out from
the other side, then reconnect the left group of cables to it.

Reconnect the AA Battery Pack to the expansion board and turn it ON to test
the headlights are all working OK.
Note: If you experience any issues with the lights not working and suspect an
issue with a component, please try a different port on the expansion board to
verify where the fault lies (with the light or expansion board). To correct any
issues with expansion board ports, please view the section addressing
expansion board issues on our online troubleshooting guide.
8.) Disconnect the AA Battery Pack and take 2x 15cm Connecting Cables and
connect each one to the 12-Port Expansion Board. Take one of the connecting
cables and thread it through the same space where the expansion board is,
then bring the cable down and thread it back out to the left side. Connect the
connecting cable to a Red Strip Light.

Take a 30cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the other port on the Red
Strip Light. Using the Strip Light’s adhesive backing, stick the Strip Light
underneath the car in the following position.

9.) Take the other end of the 30cm Connecting Cable and thread it underneath
the technic bars. Continue to thread it in between the wheel axis, pulling it out
from the other side.

Thread the cable underneath the light grey technic bar, then bring it back over
again and thread it through the technic bar hole towards the left. Ensure you
tighten the cable as you pull it out from the other side.

Continue to loop the cable back around, threading it through the same hole as
before. Ensure you tighten the cable each time you pull it out from the other
side. Loop the cable back through a few more times to eliminate excess cable
until you have about 4-5cm of cable left, then connect it to a new Red Strip
Light.

10.) Take a 5cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the other side of the Red
Strip Light, then using it’s adhesive backing, stick the strip light down vertically
on the black technic bar in the below position. Connect the other end of the
5cm Connecting Cable to a new Red Strip Light, then connect a new 30cm
Connecting Cable to the strip light’s other port.
