OK, Let’s Begin! Instructions for installing this kit...
Page 9
1.) We will start installing lights to the right section of the building. First detach and remove the upper levels from the ground floor, followed by the lamp post and floor tiles as pictured below.
Page 11
2.) Replace the stock lamp post with the Light My Bricks lamp post with Bit Light installed and ensure the lamp post cable is facing toward the back. Carefully disconnect the wall from the base plate to allow you to thread the lamp post cable underneath the wall.
Page 13
Reconnect the front wall to the base plate as well as the tiles.
Page 14
3.) Take a White Strip Light and then stick it onto the base of a LEGO 1×6 Plate using the adhesive backing. We will identify this strip light as striplight#1.
Page 15
Take a 15cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the right port on the strip light and then connect the lamp post cable to the left port.
Page 16
Take the 1st floor over the ground floor and then turn over on it’s back to allow us to mount the strip light to the following position.
Page 17
Thread the other end of the 15cm cable up the space which leads to the 1st floor, then pull the cable up from the top and connect it to a 6-Port Expansion Board. Securely reconnect the 1st floor to the ground floor.
Page 19
4.) Disconnect the following pieces on the top of the 1st floor and then remove the following section of the veranda.
Page 22
Turn this section of the veranda over and then take a White 15cm Bit Light and stick it to the following position using an adhesive square. Reconnect this section of the veranda back to the front of the building and ensure cable is laid behind in between studs.
Page 25
Connect the Bit Light cable to the next available port on the 6-port Expansion Board and then connect another 15cm connecting cable to the next port.
Page 26
5.) Use 2x adhesive squares to mount the expansion board behind the staircase as per below...
Page 27
To prevent the bit light cable from being seen from the outside looking in, hide the cable by laying them in between studs underneath tiles .
Page 28
6.) Take the AA Battery Pack and insert 3x AA batteries to it. Place the battery pack at the back of the building and then connect the battery pack cable to the 6-port expansion board.
Page 29
Secure the battery pack cable underneath the tile and then turn the battery pack on the test all the lights installed so far are working OK.
Page 30
Take another 15cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the next port on the 6-port expansion board. The other end of this cable will be used to connect the left section of this building so set this aside to the left for now.
Page 31
7.) Take a White Strip Light (striplight#2) and then stick it to a LEGO 1×6 Plate. Connect another 15cm Connecting Cable to the right port.
Page 32
Take the entire 2nd floor over the 1st floor and then mount striplight#2 underneath in the following position.
Page 33
Thread the 15cm cable up through the space that leads to the 2nd floor and then pull the cable up from the other side and connect to a new 6-port Expansion Board.
Page 35
Locate the 15cm cable we connected to the expansion board earlier. Connect this into the left port on striplight#2 and then securely reconnect the 2nd floor on top of the 1st floor.
Page 36
8.) Remove the following section on the top of the 2nd floor and then install another White 15cm Bit Light (using an adhesive square) underneath this section in the following position...
Page 38
Ensure the Bit Light is stuck to the exact position as shown above Reconnect this section ensuring the cable is neatly laid behind and then connect it to the next port on the 6-port expansion board.
Page 39
9.) Connect another 15cm Connecting Cable to the next port on the expansion board and then use another 2x adhesive squares to mount the expansion board behind the staircase.
Page 41
To prevent the bit light cable from being seen from the outside looking in, hide the cable by laying them in between studs underneath tiles. Loop the 15cm cable around the staircase.
Page 43
10.) Take another White Strip Light (striplight#3) and stick it to a LEGO 1×6 Plate. Take the other end of the 15cm connecting cable from the expansion board below and connect it to the left port of striplight#3. Take the entire top floor over the 2nd floor and then mount striplight#3 underneath to the following position...
Page 44
Take another 15cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the right port on striplight#3 and then thread the other end of it up the space which leads to the top floor. Remove the roof off the top floor and then pull the cable up from underneath.
Page 45
11.) Turn the building to the side and then disconnect the following sections to allow us to remove 3 veranda pieces as per below.
Page 47
Take a White Strip Light (striplight#4) and stick it underneath the 3 LEGO pieces in the following position and then locate the 15cm cable from below and connect to the left port on striplight#4 Note: We do not require a LEGO 1×6 plate for this strip light.
Page 48
Take another 15cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the right port on striplight#4 before reconnecting this section back to the roof ensuring you carefully lay both connecting cables behind.
Page 49
Before we reconnect the tiles we removed earlier, loop the cable we pulled up from below around studs to prevent dangling cables from being seen from the outside looking in.
Page 50
12.) Take another White Strip Light (striplight#5) and stick it to a LEGO 1×6 Plate. Connect the 15cm cable from striplight#4 to the right port on striplight#5.
Page 51
Lay the cable between striplight#4 and striplight#5 underneath the following LEGO tile in between studs. Ensure you have enough cable length to mount striplight#5 to the roof later.
Page 52
13.) Remove the following LEGO section from the very top of the building and take a White 15cm Bit Light and stick it underneath this LEGO section (using an adhesive square) to the following position.
Page 55
Reconnect this section to the building ensuring the cable is neatly laid behind. Connect the Bit Light cable to the left port on striplight#5 and then mount the striplight underneath the roof as per below.
Page 56
Securely reconnect the roof and then turn on the battery pack to test all the lights we have installed so far.
Page 58
14.) Take the left section of Market Street and remove the roof as well as tiles to allow us to remove the lamp connected to the 1×1 brick.
Page 61
Remove the lamp base from the brick and then take the last White 15cm Bit Light and place it directly over the white stud ensuring the cable is facing the back. Secure the Bit Light in place by reconnecting the lamp bulb directly over the top.
Page 62
Reconnect the lamp to the 1×1 brick and then reconnect this section back to the building as well as surrounding pieces ensuring the cable is laid in between studs.
Page 63
15.) Take the last White Strip Light (striplight#6) and stick it to a LEGO 1×6 Plate. Connect the cable from the lamp to the left port on striplight #6 and then locate the 15cm connecting cable from the right building (which we connected at the end of step 6) and connect it to the right port on striplight#6...
Page 64
Mount striplight#6 underneath the roof of this section in the following position and then securely reconnect everything.
