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.
Trans Clear Plate w Rounded Bottom 2 x 2

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.
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.
OK, Let’s Begin!

1.) We will first install lights to the Ice rink. Disconnect the following sectionssurrounding the
snow pile on the right side as shown below:
Take a Blue 30cm Bit Light and bend the LED up at approximately 1cm from the end. With the LED
facing the Ice rink, place the cable in between the white studs, then secure it in place by reconnecting
the white angled brick as shown below:

2.) Reconnect the surrounding pieces, then turn this section around to the sideand bring the cable
towards the back. Disconnect the light post section and lay the cable in between studs underneath it.
Reconnect the light post to secure the cable in place.

Turn the set around to the back and connect the Blue Bit Light into a large port on a Micro 4-Port
Expansion Board. Take the AA Battery Pack and insert 3x NEW AA Batteries to it. Connect the Battery
Pack cable to the other large port on the Micro Expansion Board, then turn ON the power to test the
blue light is 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.

3.) We will now install flashing lights to the lights hanging over the ice rink.Disconnect the two
light sections on the right, then disassemble them as shown below.
Take a Flashing White 15cm Micro Bit Light and place the LED inside one of the white plates with
clips. Secure the Bit Light in place by reconnecting the trans green round plate over the top.
Warning – Do not forcefully connect the LEGO plate back inside the white plate. Because of the size
of the micro LED, the plate will not fully connect inside. Forcing the plate to fully reconnect may
cause the wire to break.

Repeat this step to install another Flashing White 15cm Micro Bit Light to the other light section.

4.) Reconnect the red light to the overhead string, ensuring the trans red plateis facing down.
Bring the cable across and over the flag, then reconnect the green light ensuring the cable from the
red light is laid inside the white clip of the green light.

Bring both cables over the flag, then disconnect the pole and wind both cables around it three times.
Secure the two cables underneath the white 2×2 plate underneath the pole as shown below. Ensure
the two cables are laid in between studs underneath and towards the back of this section.

Turn the set around to the back and connect both Micro Bit Light cables to the Micro Expansion
Board (smaller ports). Turn the AA Battery Pack ON to test the flashing lights are working OK.

5.) We will now install the other two flashing lights above the rink. Disconnect the two light
sections on the left side, then following the same process used in previous steps, install another 2x
Flashing White 15cm Micro Bit Lights to these lights.

6.) Reconnect the green light first, ensuring the trans green plate is facingdown, then bring
the cable over the flag. Reconnect the red light ensuring the cable from the green light is clipped
inside the white clip of the red light. Bring both cables over the flag.
Wind both cables around the pole twice, then secure the cables underneath the white plate on
the bottom of the pole. Ensure the cables are laid together in between studs underneath and
that they are facing toward the back of this section.

7.) Turn the set around to the back and disconnect the white 2×4 plate underneath the
larger tree on the right. Lay the two cables down in between studs as shown below, then
reconnect the white plate as well as the larger tree.

Connect the two Micro Bit Lights to the remaining ports on the Micro Expansion Board. Turn ON
the Battery Pack to test the flashing lights are all working OK.

8.) Disconnect the AA Battery Pack from the expansion board, then disconnectthe bench as
well as the white 2×4 plate to the right of it. Lay the cables from the Blue Bit Light and the two
Flashing Micro Bit Lights toward the centre of this section in between studs. Reconnect the 2×4
plate over the top followed by the bench.
