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 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 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.

WARNING: Incorrectly inserting the connector can result in bent pins inside the port or possible overheating of the expansion board when connected.

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!

Instructions for installing this kit

1.) We will first install lights to clock tower. To start, disconnect the the top part of the tower from where the bottom of the clock is.

Disconnect the 3 sections of the tower as per below:

Remove clock border sections from all four sides of the tower and then remove the top section above the clock

Carefully remove clock sections from all four sides of the tower as per below.

Remove the light grey 2×6 technic plate from the centre.

2.) Take 2x White 15cm Bit Lights and then stick them to the following positions using 2x Adhesive Squares.

Take another 2x White 15cm Bit Lights and then stick them to adhesive squares before bending the cable up in a 90 degree angle as per below.

Stick both Bit Lights to the following positions (directly over black studs):

Take the top 2 Bit Light cables and then bring them together before looping the connector sides through the first hole of the light grey technic plate we removed earlier.

Repeat this step to install another 4x White 15cm Bit Lights to the opposite side of the tower.

After threading the top two Bit Light cables through the whole of the technic plate, reconnect the plate in place ensuring cables underneath are in between studs.

3.) Turn to the next side along and then install another 4x White 15cm Bit Lights to the top and bottom corners in the below positions. (You will notice on these sides of the tower that there is only one plate to stick the top 2 lights on. Ensure you are sticking the Bit Lights to the exact same position as shown below).

Follow this same method to install another 4x White 15cm Bit Lights to the remaining side of the tower.

4.) Take one of the clock sections and carefully reconnect it to the tower ensuring cables are neatly laid in between studs as you connect it. Ensure you first reconnect the clock section to the side you have just installed Bit Lights to.

Next, reconnect the clock section to the opposite side of the tower, ensuring you are keeping studs underneath free from cables.

Turn to the next side and then carefully reconnect the clock section.

4.) Before we reconnect the remaining clock section, take the 50cm Connecting Cable and thread one side through the first hole from the top of the light grey technic plate.

Pull the cable down all the way until you have about 10cm of cable slack between the top of the light grey plate and the connector before connecting it to a 6-Port Expansion Board.

Carefully disconnect the 1×6 tile from below and then thread the cable through one of the gaps. Pull the cable all the way down from underneath but ensure you still leave the 10cm of excess cable above.

Reconnect the 1×6 tile ensuring the cable is neatly laid in between studs and then carefully reconnect the remaining clock section.

5.) Take all the Bit Light cables and bring them together by twisting them around each other to form one larger cable.

Take the section we removed from above and then thread all cables as well as the expansion board through the bottom of it before securely reconnecting on top of the clock section.

Take 2x 5cm Connecting Cables and 2x 8-Port Expansion Boards and connect the the cables to end ports to join the expansion boards together.

Connect the other end of the 5cm cable to the 6-port expansion board on top of the clock and then connect all Bit Light Cables to available ports.

Now take the time to test all the lights we have installed so far. Take the AA Battery Pack and insert 3x AA Batteries into it. Connect the battery pack cable into the spare port on the expansion board and turn on to verify all 4 lights from each side of the tower are working OK.

If you’re using the USB Power Cable, connect this to the board this instead of the battery pack, and connect the other end to a USB Power Bank or wall adaptor (sold separately) and turn it ON to test the front lights are working OK.

Once you have verified all is OK, disconnect the battery pack/usb cable and then reconnect to the border sections to each side.

6.) We will now install lights to the top sections. Take the middle section and then disconnect pieces as per below.

Take a White 15cm Bit Light and then place it in the very centre of the base. Secure it in place by reconnecting the trans-clear pieces directly over the top.

Reconnect remaining piece we removed earlier and then reconnect the roof.

NOTE: The side with the exposed cable will be facing toward the back.

7.) Take the section below and then turn over so we can access underneath of it.

Take the 2x Green Strip Lights and connect 2x 5cm Connecting Cables (one in between strip lights and another to the other side of a strip light). Use their adhesive backing to stick the green strip lights to the below positions underneath.

Ensure the strip lights are stuck in the exact position as shown above otherwise we will not be able to reconnect this section.

Push the 5cm cable in between strip lights inward so that it does not get caught and stick out when we reconnect this section.

8.) Take the top roof and then thread the Bit Light cable down below before reconnecting over the section we just installed strip lights to.

Pull the Bit Light cable down just enough to be able to then connect it into the strip light with the spare port.

Tuck the expansion boards from the top of the tower in as much as possible and then take the roof section and connect the 5cm cable from the green strip light into the remaining port on the expansion board.

Reconnect roof on top of the clock section and ensure all is secure.

You can now test what we have done so far by connecting the 50cm cable from the base of the clock to a spare expansion board and connect up the battery pack or usb cable again. Verify all is working OK.

If all is OK, reconnect this whole section back to the rest of the tower and ensure you leave the 50cm cable outside the back.

9.) Turn Big Ben over to the back and remove the roof.

You will require the LEGO removal tool to assist with this next step.

Follow below images to get in between sections to allow us to remove a few 1×1 Bricks from the back. This will allow us to thread cable inside the building.

Disclaimer: You will notice you will have another 3x trans-black bricks which are not pictured in this user guide. These will also need to be removed.

After successfully removing bricks you can reconnect all sections back together, without the bricks we were required to remove.

10.) We will now install lights to the lamp posts at the bottom. First remove all three lamp posts and disconnect the tops.

Take a White 30cm Bit Light and then place it directly over the lamp post piece. Secure it in place by reconnecting the top pieces directly over the Bit Light as shown below.

Repeat this step to install another 2x White 30cm Bit Lights to the remaining 2 lamp posts.

11.) Disconnect the following pieces from the bottom.

Connect the first lamp post and then lay the cable in between studs before reconnecting one of the light grey tiles over the top of it to secure it in place.

Continue to lay the cable down and securing it place by reconnecting more tiles.

Take a Black Plate 1×6 (which came in this light kit) and connect it to the following position. Take a Dark Bluish Grey Tile 1×1 and connect it to the next stud along.

Take the second lamp post and thread the connector side of it through the following space and then thread all along until it reaches the back. Pull it all the way through and then connect the lamp post on the black stud.

Ensure the cable for the lamp post is pushed down and then reconnect the light grey tile over the top.

Reconnect the next lot of dark grey tiles.

Take the cable from the first lamp post we connected and thread the cable through the last space and then out the back so that both cables are through.

Connect the remaining lamp post and then push down the cable to allow us to reconnect the remaining light grey tile.

12.) Take the remaining 6-Port Expansion Board and connect a 30cm Connecting Cable to it followed by the 3 Bit Light cables from the lamp posts.

Thread the expansion board and cables through the spacing we created when we removed the bricks from the corner of the building.

Take the 50cm cable from the tower and connect it to the expansion board we just threaded through. We will not have enough cable length to allow us to easily do this so we will need to disconnect top sections of the wall. Follow the below images to remove sections to allow us to connect the cable to the expansion board.

Pull the Bit Light cables in from the inside so that minimal cabling is left on the outside, then secure the Bit Light cables to the back of the wall using tape. Ensure you do not pull in the 30cm cable.

Reconnect sections we removed earlier (trans black bricks in the corner).

Hide the 50cm cable underneath tiles as shown below and then reconnect the roof.

13.) We will now install spot lights to light the outside of the building. Starting from the side where we already have a black 1×6 plate connected, locate the following LEGO pieces which came provided in this light kit and then assemble them together according to images below.

Plate 1×6, Black
Plate, Modified 1×2 with handle on End — Close Ends, Black
Tile, Modified 1×1 with Clip, Black

Take a White Strip Light and stick it to the base of the Lego plate using the adhesive backing. Since we will be installing a total of 6 Strip Lights to use as spotlights we will identify this particular one as striplight#1

Locate the spare end of the 30cm connecting cable from the corner of the building and thread it through the spacing at the back of the building and then out through the second space behind the lamp posts. Connect this cable to the right port of striplight#1.

Take a 15cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the left port of striplight#1 and then connect the base of the spot light to the black 1×6 plate.

Turn the building around to the front and then remove the following 1×2 LEGO tile and then replace with a black 1×6 plate as well as a dark grey 1×1 tile.

Take another Plate, Modified 1×2 with handle on End — Close Ends, Black and Tile, Modified 1×1 with Clip, Black and assemble them together to make another spot light.

Take another White Strip Light (striplight#2) and stick it onto another Black 1×6 Plate. Connect the other end of the 15cm connecting cable from striplight#1 the right port and then connect a new 15cm connecting cable to the left port. Connect the plate with striplight#2 to the spot light base.

Locate LEGO pieces to assemble another 2 spotlight bases and then connect them to the following positions as per below.

Take 2x White Strip Lights and stick them onto Lego 1×6 plates (striplight#3 & striplight#4). Connect the two together using a 5cm Connecting Cable and then connect a 15cm Connecting Cable to the right port of the striplight#4

Connect the 15cm connecting cable from striplight#2 to the right port of striplight#3 and then connect both plates to the spot light bases as per below.

Assemble another few spot light pieces and connect them to the following position.

Take another White Strip Light (striplight#5) and stick it onto a 1×6 plate. Connect another 15cm connecting cable to the left port of striplight#5 and then connect the other end of the 15cm cable from striplight#4 to the right port.

Connect the plate with striplight#5 onto the spot light base.

Turn over to the left side of the building and then connect a black 1×6 plate as well as spot light pieces to the following position.

Take the last White Strip Light (striplight#6) and then stick onto the remaining 1×6 plate. Connect the other end of the 15cm cable from striplight#5 to the right port and then connect the plate with striplight#6 to the spotlight base.

14.) Take the AA Battery Pack/ USB Cable and position against the back wall and connect the battery pack cable to the left port on striplight#6.

Finally, turn on the battery pack and ensure all spot lights are working. Adjust the angles of the spotlights to ensure they are all shining evenly onto the building.

This completes installation of the Big Ben LED Lighting Kit. ENJOY!

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!

Instructions for installing this kit

1.) We will install lights to the left section of the Tower Bridge starting with the middle bridge section. First, turn the Tower Bridge to the other side and then take the AA Battery Pack and insert 3x AA batteries before placing it on the back in the below position. Ensure the cable is facing down and the battery switch is accessible.

If you’re using a USB Cable, then place this here instead of the AA Battery Pack.

Take a Blue Strip Light and connect a 30cm Connecting Cable into the right port. Connect the Battery Pack Cable / USB cable into the left port and then peel off the adhesive backing to allow you to stick this strip light underneath the bridge as per below:

Push down the bridge gate to original position and then secure/hide the battery cable /usb cable by removing the 1×4 brick, laying the cable in between studs and then reconnecting it over the top.

2.) Turn the Tower Bridge back to the front, then take the 30cm cable from the blue strip light and thread through the holes of the white technic brick underneath to eliminate excess cable.

3.) Secure the cable behind the grey 1×4 brick and connect the cable to the right port of a White Strip Light. Connect another 30cm Connecting Cable to the left port.

Remove the 1×8 brick from the front of the tower base and then stick the White Strip Light on to the inside of the brick as per below. Then reconnect it to the base.

4.) Take another Blue Strip Light and then connect the 30cm cable from the white strip light to the right port. Take a 5cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the left port of the Blue Strip Light

Take a 6-Port Expansion Board and connect 2x 15cm Connecting Cables to the ports on each far side.

Connect the other end of the 5cm from the blue strip light to one of the ports on the expansion board.

NB: An extra LEGO 1×6 plate is only used in this image to allow for easy mounting of the strip light. The plate used in this image is not included in this set as the strip light can be stuck using the adhesive backing.

5.) Remove the base of the bridge road on the left side and then turn over to allow us to stick the Blue Strip Light and expansion board underneath to the following position (using 2x adhesive squares).

Thread the two 15cm cables through the small gap between the blue brick 2×10 and the road plate.

Reconnect the bridge road section back to the base plate ensuring cables are well hidden underneath.

Turn on the battery pack to verify all the strip lights installed so far are working OK.

If you’re using the USB Power Cable, connect this to the other end to a USB Power Bank or wall adaptor (sold separately) and turn it ON to test the front lights are working OK.

6.) From the left side of the bridge, secure the two 15cm cables by connecting them underneath the road plate as per below:

7.) Take 2x White Strip Lights and connect the 15cm cables from the bridge to each strip light port. Connect another 15cm Connecting Cable to the other port of each white strip light.

Stick the strip lights to the second lot of blue plates from the left (one for each side)

8.) Take another 2x White Strip Lights and connect a 30cm Connecting Cable to each right port.

Before we stick these 2 strip lights, we need to eliminate excess cable from the 15cm cables from the previous strip lights. To do this, wind the cables around the LEGO plates as shown below.

Once you have eliminated as much cable as possible, connect each cable to the second set of white strip lights and then stick the strip lights underneath the 4th lot of blue plates across from the left.

Turn on the battery pack to verify all is working OK.

9.) We will now move onto lighting the left tower. First remove the top section and then thread the other end of each of the 30cm cables from below through the spacing above each arch window frame. Pull the cable up from the inside of the tower.

Repeat this step to thread the other 30cm cable through.

10.) Take a 6-Port Expansion Board and then connect each 30cm cable we threaded through to the side ports. Mount the expansion board to the inside wall of the tower using another 2x adhesive squares.

11.) Take another 2x White Strip Lights and then stick them to provided LEGO 1×6 Plates. Connect a 15cm Connecting Cable to each of the ports of the two strip lights (4x 15cm cables in total).

Connect the strip lights to each side of the inside of the tower in below positions.

Take one cable from each of the strip lights we just installed and connect them to the 6-port expansion board we mounted earlier.

12.) Remove the following 2 corner sections as per below, followed by the blue plate sections on each side.

Thread the spare cable from each of the strip lights through the spacing on each side, then thread them through the gaps on one of the gate pieces. Use below images as a guide.

Once the cables are threaded through, reconnect the LEGO pieces we removed earlier.

13.) Take the top section of the tower we removed earlier and then turn over to remove white and black plates underneath.

Take a White Strip Light and connect a 15cm Connecting Cable to the right port. Stick the strip light to the roof of this section in the exact position as per below, ensuring the cable is facing down.

Pull the cable towards the right and then reconnect the black plate.

Reconnect the white plate ensuring the cable is in between black and white plates as shown below.

Take the top section of the tower and then connect the other end of the 15cm cable to one of the ports on the expansion board. Then reconnect this section on top of the tower and secure in place.

Turn on the battery pack and ensure all is working OK

14.) Take 4x White Strip Lights and then connect a 5cm Connecting Cable between two of them as well as a 15cm Connecting cable to each side as per below.

Locate one of the cables from the bridge and then connect this cable to the spare port on one set of strip lights. Stick this set of strip lights under the bridge in the below position.

Repeat this step to install the second lot of strip lights.

Turn on the battery pack to verify all is working OK.

15.) Remove the top section of the right tower and then disconnect the two corner sections as well as the blue plates on each side.

Take one of the spare 15cm cables from underneath and thread it up through the gaps of one of the gate pieces which leads inside. Pull the cable up from the inside and then thread through the spacing which leads inside the right tower.

Repeat this step to thread the other 15cm cable through to the other side of the right tower and then reconnect the blue plates.

16.) Take another 2x White Strip Lights and then stick them to provided LEGO 1×6 Plates. Connect another 15cm Connecting Cable to each right port of the strip lights.

Take one of the strip lights and connect one of the cables from the bridge to the left port before mounting the strip light to the inside of the tower in the below position.

Repeat this step for the other strip light.

17.) Take another 6-Port Expansion Board and then connect the spare 15cm cable from each of the strip lights below to the side ports.

Mount the expansion board to the inside of the tower using 2x adhesive squares.

18.) Take a 30cm Connecting Cable and from the outside of the building, thread the cable through space above the arch window. Pull it up from the inside of the building and then connect to the expansion board.

Repeat this process to thread and connect another 30cm Connecting Cable

19.) Take the top section of the tower we removed earlier and then turn over to remove white and black plates underneath.

Pull the cable towards the right and then reconnect the black plate.

Reconnect the white plate ensuring the cable is in between black and white plates as shown below.

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!

Instructions for installing this kit

1.) We will start by installing lights to the 2 lamps at the front door. Start by disconnecting the top sections of the castle so we can work with just the base. Remove the following lamp sections as per below.

You will require a LEGO Removal Tool to assist you in removing LEGO sections and creating gaps where required.

2.) Use the LEGO Removal Tool to lift and create a gap at the following position on the right side of the front door.

Remove the following sections

3.) Take one of the lamp sections and disassemble as per below

Take a White 30cm Bit Light and thread the connector side through the top (smaller hole) of the pearl gold round plate. Thread all the way through until the LED component of the Bit Light is right up against the bottom of the plate.

Reconnect the pearl gold plate back to the rest of the lamp ensuring the LED Component is clearly visible, then reconnect the remaining LEGO pieces to the lamp.

Ensure the LED Component is clearly visible from the front of the lamp

Reconnect the lamp with bit light installed back to the castle and then remove the right door.

4.) Thread the other end of the cable through to the inside of the castle and then lay the cable neatly underneath the gap we created. Reconnect the door to secure the cable in place.

Reconnect pieces we removed earlier and then close the gap by pushing down pieces together.

5.) Repeat step 2 to remove pieces and create another gap to the left side of the door.

6.) Repeat steps 3 and 4 to install another White 30cm Bit Light to the lamp on the right, then reconnect sections and push down on bricks to close up the gap.

7.) Turn the castle around so that we can access the inside and then pull the cables right through from the doorway.

Remove the following tiles from the base of the second floor and then remove the 6×8 plate from the middle, followed by the 2×10 plate behind.

Thread the 2 cables from front door up this space we have created and then set aside.

8.) Use the LEGO removal tool to lift and remove the middle section as per below.

Take a Strip Light and connect a 15cm connecting cable on each port (total 2x connecting cables). Since we are using several strip lights in this lighting kit, we will identify this one as striplight#1

Peel off the adhesive backing paper and to allow us to stick it to the base of balcony as close as possible to the 1×6 plate

Pull the connecting cables over before reconnecting the 2×10 brown plate and middle section we removed earlier

9.) Remove the following sections of the base of the second floor and then thread the connecting cable from the left port on striplight#1 underneath the 6×8 plate (but over the beam below) through to the left side.

Repeat this process for the right section and cable from the right port on striplight#1.

10.) We will now install lights to the chandelier. First remove this entire section at the 2×2 plate and then disassemble pieces as per below:

Take out 8 of the provided trans orange round plates which came in this set.

11.) Take a White 30cm Bit Light and then bend the LED component on a 90 degree angle with the component face up. Place the bit light inside one of the white round pieces and then secure by connecting a trans orange plate directly over it.

Repeat the above process to install another 7x White 30 Bit Lights using provided trans orange round plates to secure.

12.) Connect each light section back to the wheel ensuring each cable is facing toward the centre of the wheel.

Group all the cables together and then twist/wind them around each other so that they all come together to form one large cable.

Reconnect this section back to the roof of the ground floor.

13.) Bring the cables of the chandelier toward the front of the castle and then thread the cables up the space which leads to the second level. Lay the cables in between studs of the first brown brick before reconnecting the middle 6×8 plate directly over the top as well as the brown tiles we removed earlier.

14.) Take a 12-Port Expansion Board and then connect all lights from the chandelier as well as the 2 front door lights we installed at the start into available ports of the expansion board.

This is now a good time to test the lights we have installed so far. To do this take the USB Power Cable and connect it to your USB Power Bank. Connect the other end of the USB Power Cable into a spare port on the expansion board and turn on to confirm all the lights are working OK.

15.) Let’s move onto lighting the rest of the ground floor. Take a Strip Light (striplight#2) and then stick it onto a provided 1×6 plate. Connect a 5cm connecting cable into one of the ports. Take this strip light and connect the loose 15cm cable hanging from the left side of the roof into the spare port and then mount to the roof in the below position. Ensure the 5cm connecting cable is facing the right.

16.) Take another Strip Light (striplight#3) and stick to a 1×6 plate. Connect a 30cm connecting cable to one of the ports on the strip light. Take this strip light and connect the loose 15cm cable hanging from the right side of the roof into the spare port and mount to the roof in the below position. Ensure the 30cm connecting cable is facing the right.

You can prevent the cable from hanging down by looping them behind the strip light like what I have done here

Thread the other end of the 30cm cable up behind the back wall which leads up to the level above. Pull up from underneath and then connect the cable into one of the spare ports on the 12-port expansion board.

Take this time to test our lights we have installed so far by connecting back the USB Power Cable to the expansion board and verifying all is OK.

17.) We will now install lights to the 2 fire torches. First remove them and then disassemble pieces as per below:

Locate the provided 2x torch bases with Bit Light installed and connect your original 2x trans orange flame pieces over the top.

Reconnect these 2 sections back to the poles and then back to the pillars ensuring the cables are behind.

18.) We now need to thread the cable for each torch underneath the pillars at the below position.

To do this, use your LEGO removal tool to lift and create a gap opening to allow you to thread the bit light cable through the middle in between studs. Once threaded through close up the gap by reconnecting down the pillars.

Repeat this process for the torch cable on the other side.

19.) Take out one of the Flicker Effects Boards and connect the torch cables into the any 2 output ports as shown below:

20.) Locate the 5cm cable from striplight#2 hanging from the roof and connect this into the input port on the flicker effects board. Use 2x provided Adhesive Squares to mount the effects board to the top of the wall in the below position.

21.)We now need to eliminate excess cables from the 2 torches. To do this, bring the cables up and lay them underneath the grey tiles on the roof of the ground floor. You will need to first disconnect tiles, lay the cables in between studs, then reconnect the tiles over the top of them as shown below.

Test all the lights and effects are working together by connecting the USB Power Cable to the expansion board above. Turn on and verify all is OK.

22.) We will now move onto installing lights to each of the towers on the first floor. Remove the roof off the far left tower from the round white base as per below. Take a White 30cm Bit Light and stick underneath the white round plate in the below position using an adhesive square.

Reconnect this roof section back to the tower ensuring the cable for the bit light is laid over the grey bricks underneath toward the right.

Remove the roof off the next tower along and install another White 30cm Bit Light underneath the white round base using an adhesive square. Reconnect roof with cable in between the white round plate and grey brick underneath facing toward the centre.

23.) Repeat previous steps to install another 2x White 30cm Bit Lights for the two towers on the right side using adhesive squares(one bit light each).

You can use tape to neaten up and secure the cables to the sides of the tower.

24.) We will now install a light to the clock on the front. First remove the sections on each side of the front of the tower as per below.

From the back of the castle, use the LEGO removal tool to lift this section off at the following position.

Remove the clock piece as well as following pieces from the front.

25.) Take a White 30cm Bit Light and thread the connector side through one of the holes of the grey holes behind. Thread all the way through until you have about 5cm cable left. Stick the bit light to the following position using an adhesive square.

Reconnect the clock piece as well as other pieces we removed earlier.

Reconnect this whole section back to the castle and then reconnect the two sections on each side of the top.

26.) Take another 12-Port Expansion Board and connect a 5cm connecting cable to the first port. Connect the other end of the cable to the remaining port on the first expansion board.

Connect the Bit Light cables from the 4 towers as well as the clock light to the ports on the other side of the second expansion board.

Neaten up cabling by laying them down in between the centre section and walls of the castle. Tuck the expansion boards into the middle section as per below.

Test the lights we have installed again by connecting the USB Power Cable to the expansion board. Turn on to verify all is OK

27.) Take the Multi-Colour Changing Light String and connect it to the next spare port on the far right of the 12-port expansion board.

Lay the light string across the base of the second floor. Use 2x provided LEGO 1×2 plates to secure down at each side and do your best to ensure each of the 10 individual LEDs are facing up as we want them to shine as much as possible onto the front of the second level walls.

28.) Take a 30cm Connecting Cable as well as 2x 50cm Connecting Cables and connect them all into spare ports of the expansion board.

The 30cm connecting cable will be used to connect to lights on the second level of the tower. The 2x 50cm connecting cables will be used for the spot lights at the front of the castle which will shine on the front walls. Take the 50cm connecting cable connected to the left and neatly thread it toward the left side of the castle. Do the same for the other 50cm connecting cable, but thread it to the right side of the castle.

29.) Locate the following LEGO pieces which were provided in this kit and assemble them as per below to build 2x spotlights.

2x Black Plate 2×6
4x Plate, Modified 1×2 with Stud (jumper)
2x Dish 3×3 Inverted (Radar)
2x Plate, Modified 1×2 with handle on End — Close Ends
2x Tile, Modified 1×1 with Clip

Take the two Multi-Coloured Strip Lights and peel off the adhesive backing paper to stick on to the base of each 2×6 plate.

Stick one of the strip lights the correct way up (for the spot light on the left side) and stick the other strip light upside down (for the spot light on the right side)

Connect the other end of the 50cm cable from each side into the input port on the strip lights.

We can position the spot light at each side of the castle and adjust so that the light is shining on the walls. You can also take this time to connect the USB power bank and test.

The Multi-Coloured Strip Lights will automatically cycle through different colours

30.) Take the USB Power Cable and USB Power Bank and place it on the base of the second floor as per below. Connect the cable into a spare port on the 12-port expansion board.

As the USB Power Cable and Power Bank are now in their permanent position, you can test the connected lights at any stage of this user guide.

31.) We will now move onto lighting the next levels of the castle. Take the middle section and turn it to its back. Use the LEGO removal tool to remove the middle section of the roof, followed by some blue tiles which make up the roof.

32.) Take the middle roof section and install a White 30cm Bit Light underneath it using an adhesive square. Reconnect this middle roof section back to the top ensuring the cable is facing toward the right then reconnect the roof pieces following the below order. Ensure you thread the bit light cable through to the inside as you go.

33.) Remove section and pieces as per below.

34.) From the front of the castle, remove the following sections around the top of the window as well as the window section itself.

Disassemble pieces of the window as per below.

35.) Take a White 15cm Bit Light and place it underneath the top half of the window in below position. Hold the bit light in place with your finger before reconnecting window pieces, securing it in place. Ensure the LED component of the Bit Light is facing downward.

If you look from below up, you should be able to see the LED component peaking out

Reconnect the window section ensuring you first thread the cable through to the inside of the castle.

36.) Before you reconnect the top of the window section, install another White 15cm Bit Light by sticking it underneath using an adhesive square.

Reconnect this section back on top of the window ensuring you first thread the cable through to the inside of the castle, then reconnect all the pieces/sections we removed earlier.

From the inside, reconnect the curtain section over the top of the cables ensuring the cables are neatly laid in the middle.

37.) We will now install a light to the tower closest to the bedroom. First remove the roof off this tower as well as the white tile near by.

Use the LEGO removal to lift and create a gap at the following position

Take another White 15cm Bit Light and thread the connector end of the cable through from the top in through to the inside as per below. Stick the LED component part of the bit light to the roof of the tower using an Adhesive Square then reconnect the roof.

Reconnect the white tile we removed earlier

38.) Tuck all 4 cables in through the space which leads to the level below and then reconnect the 2 purple plates ensuring cables are neatly laid behind.

39.) We will now install a light to the tower on the left. First remove the roof of the tower at the white round plate and install a White 30cm Bit Light to the centre hole of the white round plate using a provided 1×2 plate to secure down. Ensure the Bit Light is facing downward then reconnect the roof section with the cable across to the right.

You should be able to see the LED component peaking out

40.) Take another White 30cm Bit Light and stick it to the roof corner on the level below using an adhesive square. Ensure the cable is facing toward the right.

Take the two cables and then thread them across to the other side toward the right.

We need to hide these 2 cables underneath the brown plates in the next room. First remove the following sections.

Neatly lay the two cables down in between the studs below before reconnecting brown plates back over the top, securing the cables in place. Then reconnect pieces we removed earlier

41.) Take another 12-Port Expansion Board and then connect the lights from the left tower we just lit as well as the light on the level below into the 2nd and 3rd port along the left (keep the first port on the left free).

Wind the cables around the expansion board about 4–5 times before then connecting the bit light from above the bed to the next port along (30cm bit light) and then connect the three 15cm bit lights from the windows and right tower to ports on the right side of the expansion board.

set aside the expansion board and cables for now and move onto the next step.

42.) We will now install lights to the candles (Lumière) on the level below. First remove this section as well as the table underneath and then disassemble pieces of the candle as per below.

Take a White 15cm Bit Light and place the LED component directly over the plate with stud and ensure the bit light is facing up. Reconnect the round white brick over the top securing it in place and then connect one of the provided trans orange round plates on top.

Take another White 15cm Bit Light and this time, place it inside the base one of the yellow plates with clip as shown below. Secure this in place by reconnecting one of the white round plates with hole and then connect another trans orange round plate on top. Repeat this process to install another White 15cm Bit Light to the other yellow plate with clip and connect another trans orange plate on top.

Reconnect the middle candle with bit light installed back to the “candle frame” piece followed by the 2 side candle sections ensuring the cables are all facing toward the back of the candles.

Take all 3 cables from the bit lights and twist them around each other so that they become one large cable then reconnect this section back to the table.

43.) Take out the Flicker Effects Board and connect all 3 light cables from the candle to the output ports of the effects board.

44.) Take a 30cm connecting cable and connect it to the input port of the effects board then stick 2 adhesive squares to the back.

45.) Mount the flicker effects board to the roof in the following position and then tuck in cables of the candle before reconnecting the table back securing the cables and hiding them behind.

46.) Take the other end of the 30cm connecting cable and bring it all the way up to the room above and connect it to the far left port on the 12-port expansion board.

47.) We will now install a light to the Beauty and the Beast Rose. Remove this whole section and then disconnect the trans clear case and red flower piece as per below.

Take the Green Flower piece which came provided in this light kit and then connect this on top of the green “stem”.

Take a White 30cm Bit Light and place the LED component in the centre of the green flower (facing up) and then reconnect the red flower piece over the top, securing the bit light in place. Reconnect the trans clear case.

Thread the cable of the bit light outside the window before reconnecting the table back to original position.

Bring the bit light cable up to the next level and then thread it back through the window above and then connect it to a spare port on the 12-port expansion board.

Leave the expansion board as is for now and move onto the next step.

48.) Take 2x Strip Lights and connect a 15cm Connecting Cable in between them (striplight#4 and striplight#5). Stick both strip lights onto provided 1×6 plates. Connect a 5cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the right port on striplight#5.

Connect another 15cm Connecting Cable to the left port on striplight#4

Mount striplight#4 to the following position above the spinning wheel and then thread the other end of the loose 15cm cable through the left window.

Take the 5cm connecting cable from striplight#5 and connect it to the next available port on the 12-port expansion board. Then mount the strip light to the following position above the treasure chest.

49.) Now take the entire middle section of the castle and securely connect it on top of the bottom section. Locate the other end of the 30cm connecting cable we had installed to an expansion board on lower floor (step 28) and thread this through the window to allow you to connect to a spare port on the 12-port expansion board.

Now that we have connected the middle section of the castle to the bottom we can turn on the power bank to test the lights we have installed.

50.) Take 2 adhesive squares and stick it to the back of the 12-port expansion board and then mount the expansion board onto the inside of the brown arch on the top as per below.

Do your best to prevent cables from being seen by neatening them up and using tape to secure them down (or up) to the building. See example images below.

51.) We will now move onto lighting the top section of the castle. Turn the top section around so that we can light the inside of it. Start by removing the roof section off the top as well as the mirror section from the level below.

Take the top roof and then disconnect the following 1×2 plate from underneath.

Take a White 30cm Bit Light and place it underneath in the middle (with bit light facing down) and then reconnect the 1×2 plate to secure the bit light in place.

Take another White 30cm Bit Light and place it in the below position. Secure this down by connecting one of the provided 1×2 plates over the top ensuring the bit light is facing down.

Important things to note:

Laying cables in between and underneath bricks

CAUTION: Forcing LEGO® to connect over a cable can result in damaging the cable and light.

Connecting cable connectors to Expansion Boards

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

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!

Turn your Ferris Wheel side on so that you can access the gondolas.

Remove the gondolas by pulling the white technic pieces off the main Ferris Wheel.

Repeat for all gondolas and put them to the side.

Detach the Ferris Wheel from the supporting structure by prying apart the join where the blue technic pins connect the wheel and the support structure.

Pull the Ferris Wheel out of the support structure and put the base and support structure aside.

We want to pull the two sides of the wheel apart. Disconnect the technic axle pieces from their connectors around one side of the wheel. Work around the entire wheel so they they are all disconnected or loose.

There are technic axle pieces towards the centre of the wheel as well. Disconnect these technic axle pieces from their connectors around the same side of the wheel.
Try to keep the centre supporting structure attached on the same side as the technic axle pieces. In this example, I am keeping everything attached to the left half of the wheel and nothing remaining connected to the right half of the wheel.

Pull the two halves of the wheel apart. One side has all the technic axle pieces still attached as well as the centre support pieces.
If yours didn’t come apart neatly, make the necessary changes now.

We are going to work with the right side of the wheel.

Grab one of the Colour Changing Light Strings and thread it through the inner most ring of axle connectors.

Thread the Colour Changing Light String down along the left hand side of one of the light grey axle connectors. The spoke of the wheel should be one that has transparent yellow pieces on the other side.
Pull the Colour Changing Light String through until the black heat wrapped section is near the base and can stand vertically upwards.

Grab the end of the Colour Changing Light String and feed it through the axle connectors again, wrapping it around the brown axle connector piece.

Feed the end of the Colour Changing Light String underneath the outer ring of axle connectors.

**Colour Changing Light String** wrapped around the axle connector piece.

Pull the Colour Changing Light String through and down the length of the wheel spoke until it has neatly wrapped around the axle connector piece on the inner ring.

Bend the Colour Changing Light String so that it runs at a right angle across the top of the yellow technic bush piece. It runs towards the right hand side across the spoke that has transparent yellow pieces on the other side of it.
Loop the Colour Changing Light String around the spoke and feed it back to your left.
Feed the Colour Changing Light String under the wheel spoke and over the top of the part of the Colour Changing Light String that runs along the length of the spoke.

Carefully pull the Colour Changing Light String to your left until it is wrapped snugly around the yellow technic bush piece.

Run the Colour Changing Light String over the top of the yellow technic bush piece on the next wheel spoke to the left of the one we were just working on.
Wrap the Colour Changing Light String around the yellow technic bush piece and feed it back to your right. As you feed the Colour Changing Light String back, make sure it runs higher (closer to the outer ring) than section that runs from the right spoke to the left spoke.

Fold the Colour Changing Light String down over itself close to the yellow technic bush piece. Run it down along the side of the spoke that has transparent orange pieces on the other side.

Stand the wheel up so that you can access the side with the transparent yellow and orange pieces.
Remove the transparent orange piece on the spoke that has the Colour Changing Light String running down the length of it.

Wrap the Colour Changing Light String around the gap between the third and fourth stud of the white plate piece.
Replace the transparent orange piece.

Place the wheel flat on the table again and rotate it clockwise until the next available technic connector piece on the inner ring of technic connectors is facing you.

Grab another Colour Changing Light String and repeat the steps we used to place the previous light string.
There are six technic connector sections on the inner ring of technic connectors and we are going to wrap a Colour Changing Light String around each of them.

Remember to feed the Colour Changing Light String out down the length of a spoke that has transparent yellow pieces on the other side of it.

When you have finished all six sections, the Ferris Wheel ring will look something like the pictures above.
Put this half of the wheel aside for now.

Grab the other half of the wheel with all the technic axle pieces still attached.
Lift the technic axle pieces at either end of the centre section.

Keep lifting until the centre section is detached from the wheel.

The USB power bank (Not included in this kit) will be attached to the centre section. Your power bank should be small enough to not exceed the length and width of the centre section which is approximately 4.7cm x 12cm.

Grab your USB power bank and rubber bands.

Put the rubber bands around the USB power bank and move them approximately one third of the way down the power bank.
Sit the power bank on top of the centre section.

Pull the rubber bands underneath the middle of the centre section where the round technic pin connectors are.
Pull the rubber bands back over the power bank and left them go.

The power bank should comfortably rest on the centre section.

Grab the 8 port Expansion Board and secure it to the power bank underneath the rubber bands.

Grab the USB Power Adaptor and connect it to the power bank.

Plug the USB Power Adaptor in to the 8 port Expansion Board.

Remove the black technic pin from one side of the centre section.

Grab the half of the Ferris Wheel that has the Colour Changing Light Strings fitted to it. Look for the light grey technic axle in the very centre of the wheel.

Attach the black technic pin from the centre section to the grey technic axle piece.

Reattach the centre section to the black technic pin.

Secure the centre section by reattaching the black technic axle pieces at either end of the centre piece, to the axle connectors on the wheel.

Wrap the wires from the Colour Changing Light Strings around the power bank to take up some of the slack if you wish.

Attach the plugs from the Colour Changing Light Strings to the 8 port Expansion Board.

Remove the black technic pin from the exposed side of the centre section.

Grab the other half of the wheel and attach the black technic pin to the grey axle piece in the centre of the wheel.

Put the wheels back together and prepare to reattach them.

Do your best to line up axle pieces with axle connectors.
Focus on reattaching the centre section section first.

Work around the wheel reattaching all the axle pieces and axle connectors.

Once your wheel is back together, grab the base of the model and prepare to reattach the wheel to the support structure.
Make sure the Colour Changing Light Strings are facing the front of the model.

Lift the wheel in and reattach the technic pins to hold it in place.

Time to grab the three Strip Lights and the 1 x 6 plates if you chose to use them.

If you have the 1 x 6 plates, peel the adhesive backing off the Strip Lights and attach them to the back of the plates.

Grab the 5cm Connecting Cable and connect it to one of the Strip Lights.

Working from the outside and then in, feed the 5cm Connecting Cable end of the Strip Light through the control booth and attach the Strip Light to the roof.

Grab another Strip Light and connect it to the other end of the 5cm Connecting Cable.

Attach the Strip Light to the nearest support structure leg.

Grab the 30cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the other end of the Strip Light that was just attached to the support structure leg.

Towards the top of the support structure legs, you will see a partial technic hole that we will feed the 30cm Connecting Cable through. You will have to push that piece back a fraction so that you can feed the plug of the cable through.

Pull the 30cm Connecting Cable through and then feed it back through the partially available technic hole on the other side.

Pull the 30cm Connecting Cable through and let it hang down.
Grab the last Strip Light.

Attach the 30cm Connecting Cable to the Strip Light and attach the Strip Light to the rear right support structure leg.

Grab the 15cm Connecting Cable.

Connect the 15cm Connecting Cable to the Strip Light attached to the roof of the control booth.

Grab the red and green transparent round 1 x 1 plates.

Remove the red and green transparent round 1 x 1 tiles from the top of the control booth computer.

Grab the Flashing White Bit Lights. Place one of them on top of the far stud on the control booth computer.

Slowly fit the transparent green 1 x 1 plate over the top of the Flashing White Bit Light.

Repeat the procedure for the other Flashing White Bit Light and slowly fit the transparent red 1 x 1 plate over the top.

Remove the light grey bar piece from directly in front of the control booth computer.

Gather the wires together from the Flashing White Bit Lights and the 15cm Connecting Cable.
Hold them in the corner as seen in the picture and replace the light grey bar piece.

Grab the 6 port Expansion Board and the AA Battery Pack.
Connect the AA Battery Pack to the 6 port Expansion Board.

Grab the wires from the Flashing White Bit Lights and the 15cm Connecting Cable and connect them to the 6 port Expansion Board.

Hide the AA Battery Pack and 6 Port Expansion Board in the available space underneath the ramps.

Now all you have to do is reattach your gondolas and you are good to go!

Switch on the AA Battery Pack to light up the bottom of the model.

Switch on / plug in your USB Power Bank to light up the wheel!

Note: A USB Power bank was chosen to power the wheel because it can be recharged in place by running a cable to it.
Having to pull the wheel apart every time you needed to change batteries would have been a pain.
We also wanted to maintain the Ferris Wheel’s ability to spin freely whilst being lit up.

We hope you enjoy this Light Kit!
