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.) We will first install headlights to the Mack Anthem. Remove the cargo trailerand then
disconnect the following headlight sections from each side.

Disassemble the right headlight section as shown below:
2.) Take 2x Cool White 30cm Bit Lights and position one approximately 1 cm above the other
with both LEDs facing up. Place the Bit Lights over the right studs of the right headlight as shown
below:

Secure the two lights in place by reconnecting the trans clear 1×2 plate over the top. Ensure both
Bit Lights are comfortably siting in the inside of each trans clear stud.

Take another 2x Cool White 30cm Bit Lights and position them together the same way as we did
the previous two bit lights. Place them over the top of the two left studs of the headlight section
as shown below and then secure them in place by reconnecting the trans orange 1×2 plate over
the top. Ensure both Bit Lights are comfortably siting in the inside of each trans orange stud.
3.) Turn the right headlight section over so the trans coloured plates are facingthe back. Bring
the two right cables over to the front and then secure them underneath the two curved pieces
as shown below:

Bring the two left cables down and press them down along the edge of the curved pieces.

4.) Turn the headlight section over to the front side then take a White 30cm Bit Light and
with the cable facing the back, place it over the right stud as shown below then secure the Bit
Light in place by reconnecting the trans orange triangular piece over the top
Repeat this step to install another White 30cm Bit Light to the left stud.

Reconnect the two trans black 1×2 tiles to the front of the headlight section.
5.) Repeat previous steps to install another 4x Cool White 30cm Bit Lights to the front of the
left headlight section and 2x White 30cm Bit Lights to the top.

6.) Test all the lights installed so far are working OK by connecting all six cables from each
headlight to an 8-port Expansion Board. Take the AA Battery Pack and insert 3x AA batteries to
it, then connect the battery pack cable to the expansion board. Turn the battery pack ON to
verify all lights are working OK. Repeat this step to test the lights for the other headlight section
are working OK.

From the back of one of the headlight section, take all six cables and twist/wind them around
each other a few times. Continue to twist the cables around each other all the way to the end, so
they all come together forming one larger cable.
Repeat this step for the other headlight section.

7.) Take the right headlight section and feed the cable through the followinggap, then
reconnect the headlight back to the front of the truck.
Flip the truck onto it’s side left side, then bring the cable over behind the wheel.

Thread the cable through the following space, then pull it out from the other side as shown
below:

Follow the below images to thread the cable through the holes of the technic piece, then pull it
out from the other side.

Take an 8-Port Expansion Board and connect all six cables to it.
8.) Flip the truck back over and repeat previous steps to reconnect the leftheadlight section
and thread the cable underneath the truck.

Take another 8-Port Expansion Board and connect all six cables from this headlight section to it.

9.) Take a 5cm Connecting Cable and connect one end to one of the expansion boards, then
connect the other end to the other expansion board.
Connect the AA Battery Pack cable to one of the expansion boards and turn it ON to verify all
lights are working OK.
