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!
Installing lights to the Fire Truck
1.) We will first install head and tail lights to the fire truck. Take the truck and
disconnect the front section from the vehicle, then disconnect the two trans
yellow round tiles from it.

Take a White 15cm Bit Light and thread the connector end of the cable
through the front of one of the side pieces. Thread the cable all the way
through, then flatten the Bit Light against the edge of the round stud. Secure
the Bit Light in place by connecting a provided Trans Yellow Round Plate 1×1
over the top.

Repeat this step to install another White 15cm Bit Light to the other side,
securing it in place using another provided Trans Yellow Round Plate 1×1.

2.) Flip this front section over then take the cable from the right side and fold it
over to the left side before reconnecting this section back to the front of the
vehicle. Ensure that both cables are laid toward the left.
Flip the truck over and lay it on its left side. Take both cables and bring them

behind the front right wheel
3.) Turn the truck around and disconnect the black 2×12 plate from underneath,
then disconnect the back wheel section
Disconnect the tail light section from the back wheel then disconnect the two

trans red round tiles.
4.) Take a White 15cm Bit Light and with the cable facing down, place it over
the left stud as shown below. Secure the Bit Light in place by connecting a
provided Trans Red Round Plate 1×1over the top.

Repeat this step to install another White 15cm Bit Light to the right side using
another Trans Red Round Plate 1×1to secure the Bit Light in place.
5.) Fold both cables underneath the this section then reconnect it to the back
wheel. Ensuring both cables are laid in between studs, reconnect it back
underneath the truck.

Take both tail light cables and twist/wind them around each other 3-4 times at
the edge of the plate.
Continue to wind the cables around each other all the way to the ends, then
repeat this step to twist/wind the cables from the headlights.
6.) Lay the two thicker cables underneath the truck, then reconnect the black
2×12 plate over the top ensuring the cables are laid in between studs as shown
below.

The headlight cables should be laid out toward the left side of the truck and the
tail light cables should be laid out toward the right side.
From the left side of the truck, tuck the head light cables toward the inside of
the front wheels, then flip the car around.

7.) Take a 6-Port Expansion Board and connect all four Bit Light cables to
it. Take 2x Adhesive Squares and stick them to the flat side of the expansion
board, then mount the expansion board underneath the truck in the following
position
8.) Take the Flat Battery Pack and insert 2x CR2032 Batteries inside. Connect

the battery pack cable to the expansion board and turn it ON to test that all
four lights are working OK.
Stick another 2x Adhesive Squares underneath the Flat Battery Pack (side with
screws) then twist/wind the battery pack cable before mounting the battery
pack underneath the Truck as per below.

This completes installation of the Fire Truck lights.
Installing Lights to the Fire Station and external
sections.
1.) We will first install lights to the lamp post beside the bench. Disconnect the
lamp post then remove and disassemble the top section as per below.

Take a White 30cm Bit Light and thread the connector side of the cable
through the bottom of one of the lamps. Thread the cable all the way through
until the Bit Light is up inside of the trans yellow round brick.

Carefully and slowly reconnect the black tap piece to the top ensuring the bit
light is facing the left side of the lamp (This is so the light is shining the correct
way when reconnected to the lamp).
Important Note: Do not forcefully push the tap piece as this may break the
cable. The bit light should push down slightly as the tap piece is
reconnected.
2.) Thread the Bit Light cable through the left side of the 1×1 brick with open
studs and then out the bottom as shown below. Thread the cable all the way
through before reconnecting the lamp section.

3.) Repeat previous steps to install another White 30cm Bit Light to the right
lamp ensuring the bit light is facing the right side of the lamp when
reconnecting the black tap piece.

4.) Reconnect this section (with lights installed) back to the lamp post then
from the back, twist/wind the two cables around each other all the way to the
end so that they both come together to form one larger cable.
