Lighting Kit
The following page is the instructions for the Light My Bricks LEGO Aston
Martin DB5 (10262) LED light kit.
If you run into any issues, please refer to the online troubleshooting guide.
To ensure a trouble-free installation of your light kit, please read and follow each step carefully.
Please note: This page lists instructions for the LED light kit only.

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.

Disassemble the two sections as per below:

4.) Take a White 15cm Bit Light and thread the connector end of the Bit Light through the front
hole of the light grey brick. Thread the cable all the way through and then out the bottom of
the brick. Secure the Bit Light in place by connecting a provided Trans Clear Round Plate 1×1
over the top.

Reconnect the brick back to the rest of the section it was connected to ensuring the cable is
facing the inside (toward the right).

Repeat this process to install another White 15cm Bit Light to the other light section using
another provided Trans Clear Round Plate 1×1, this time ensuring the cable is facing toward the
left.
5.) Reconnect one of the light sections we just installed to the front of the carthen thread the
cable back behind the wheel as shown below. Repeat this process for the other light section.

6.) Reconnect the two long sections (headlights) ensuring you first thread theBit Light cable
behind the wheel as shown below:

Pull the two light cables all the way out from underneath behind each front wheel.
7.) Take a 6-Port Expansion Board and connect all four Bit Light cables to it.

Take the Flat Battery Pack and insert 2x CR2032 Batteries to it. Connect the battery pack cable
to the expansion board and turn the battery pack ON to verify all the lights installed so far are
working OK.

8.) Disconnect the Flat Battery Pack and connect a 30cm Connecting Cable to the expansion
board.
Take the other end of the connecting cable and thread it through the following technic brick
holes underneath the vehicle to lead to the back.

9.) To neaten up cabling underneath and to also ensure we have enough cableslack to easily flick
the bottom head lights up and down, flick the headlights down and then from underneath
the vehicle, pull the cables down and tuck the 6-port expansion board up into the following
space.

Take the provided Plate 2×8 and then connect it over the top of the cables to prevent
components and cabling from dropping down. Ensure the cables are laid in between studs
before securing the plate down.

Thread the other end of the 30cm Connecting Cable (underneath the car) up the following space
which leads to the back of the boot.
Pull the cable all the way up from the other side and then push the rear wall of the boot back
down to original position.

Connect the cable to the far end port of the 12-Port Expansion Board
11.) Lift up the passenger roof section then place a finger/thumb underneath the roof to allow
you to disconnect the main roof section as shown below:
