Before You Begin
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.

Before You Begin
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.
Connecting Micro Cable
Connectors To Micro
Expansion Board Ports
Take extra care when inserting the
micro connectors to micro ports of Micro
Expansion Boards. Connecting Micro Bit
Lights to Micro Expansion Boards is similar
to connecting lights and cables to Strip
Lights. With the expansion board 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, do
not force it. Use your fingernail to push the
plastic part of the connector to the micro
port.

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.

TROUBLESHOOTING 16
TROUBLESHOOTING
Light My Bricks lighting
kits contain individual
components that are very
small and can be easily
damaged if not handled
correctly.
To prevent unnecessary
damage to components,
we highly recommend that
the User Guide section,
“Important things to note”
is read carefully. Follow the
handling procedures in the
User Guide to help prevent
faults and damages to your
Light My Bricks components.
If you are experiencing
issues with your Light
My Bricks set, watch our
troubleshooting video
here or read on for a list of
common causes to help you
troubleshoot.

Troubleshooting
Firstly, ensure that the
baeries have power using a
baery charge gauge.
If the baeries have no power,
replace the baeries.
If the baeries still have
power, check to see if the
baeries have been inserted
correctly into the baery
pack.
Check For CR2032 Baeries
Using The Flat Baery Pack
Inside the battery pack is a symbol
indicating which side the (round) CR2032
battery should be inserted. Check that
the “+” side of the battery pack has
the battery with the “+” symbol facing
downwards.
On the opposite side, the “-” side of the
battery pack should have the battery
flipped upside down, that is the “+” symbol
facing upwards

Troubleshooting
Check For Cr2032 Baeries
Using The Round Baery
Pack
Inside the battery pack is a symbol indicating
which side the (round) CR2032 battery should
be inserted. In this case, for the stacked
battery pack, ensure that BOTH batteries
have the “+” symbol facing upwards.
Check for AA baeries
using the AA baery pack
Inside the battery pack are symbols
indicating which direction the AA battery
should be inserted. The flat side of the
battery should be paired with the spring
side of the battery pack.
If the batteries have been installed
correctly and your kit still isn’t operating
correctly, the next step is to check the
wiring.

TROUBLESHOOTING 19
Troubleshooting
In order for Light My Bricks components to fit
in between and underneath LEGO® bricks, the
components need to be very small. Due to this
nature, Light My Bricks components can be
easily damaged when not handled correctly.
Be careful when removing unpacked
components out of the packaging and ensure
not to forcibly pull at the wires as this can
damage the soldering that attach the wires to
the LEDs.
If the wiring is detached from the LED itself, the
light will not operate.
When connecting lights to your LEGO set, check
that there are no pinched wires underneath
or in between bricks and plates. When the
wires are pinched and the exposed wires are
touching each other, this can cause a crosswire
and the lights to not function correctly.
Check Your Wires

Troubleshooting
Check Your Expansion Board
Ports/ Strip Light Ports /
Effects Board Ports
It is important to note that connectors can
only be inserted to the expansion board, strip
light, or eects board ports in one direction.
Forcibly inserting connectors in the incorrect
direction will result in damaging the pins
inside each of the ports on your component
board.
Not only will a light connected to the
damaged port not work, but if the pins inside
the port are bent to a point they are touching
each other, this can result in all other lights
in the system to stop working. This is a short
circuit.
A short circuit can also result in
overheating of the board, cable or
batteries. If you suspect a short circuit,
DISCONNECT POWER IMMEDIATELY
Batteries can fail, catch fire, or even
explode if left connected to a short circuit
for too long.
If you suspect you have a faulty
component due to a bent pin, try the
following steps:
If you look carefully inside each of the
ports, each port contains 2 small pins that
should be straight. You will be able to
identify a faulty port if it has any bent pins.
