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.

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.) Start by lifting up the hood and disconnecting the following sections surrounding the front of the vehicle:

2.) Take the bottom left headlight section and disconnect the trans clear round plate. Take a White 15cm Bit Light and thread the connector end of the cable through the right hole and out the bottom of the yellow brick. Thread the cable all the way through, then carefully bend the Bit Light so that it sits flat against the front hole. Secure the light in place by reconnecting the trans clear round plate over the top.

Reconnect this section back to the front left side of the car ensuring the cable is slipped inside and behind as shown below.

3.) Repeat the previous step to install another White 15cm Bit Light to the bottom right headlight, then reconnect this section to the front right side of the car.

4.) Place the car on it’s back, then disconnect the front right wheel. Take the Bit Light cable on this side and thread it through the following hole in the dark grey technic brick. Pull the cable out all the way out from the other side of the brick.

Repeat this step for the left side, then connect both Bit Light cables to the middle ports on the 8-Port Expansion Board.

Disconnect the following angled yellow tile.

5.) Take the Flat Battery Pack and insert 2x new CR2032 Batteries to it. Thread the battery pack cable through the following space behind the front passenger seat that leads underneath the vehicle. Pull the cable all the way out, then connect the cable to the far left port on the 8-Port Expansion board. Place the Battery Pack behind the front seats. Important Note: USB Power Cable has replaced Flat & Round Battery Packs (CR2032) as of June 2022 due to child safety regulations. Please use the USB Power Cable in place of the Battery Pack.

Turn the battery pack ON to test the front headlights are working OK.

Reconnect the front panel section

7.) Disassemble the two headlight sections as shown below, then take a White 15cm Bit Light and place it in the following position over one of the light grey plates.

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 light up the space shuttle. Disconnect and disassemble the three jet pieces from the shuttle as shown below:

Take out a White 30cm Micro Bit Light and with the LED facing up, place it inside one of the black rounded bricks. Secure the light by connecting a provided Trans Orange Round Plate 1×1 over the top.

Thread the connector end of the cable through the bottom of the black round plate with open stud, then reconnect this along with the clip tile to the back as shown below:

Reconnect this section to the back of the shuttle ensuring the cable is facing the same way as shown in the below images.

2.) Repeat the previous step to install another 2x White 30cm Micro Bit Lights to the two other jet sections (using the provided Trans Orange Round Plate 1×1 to secure the lights in place). Reconnect each jet section to the back of the shuttle with the cable facing the same way.

3.) Group the three cables together toward the shuttle and twist them around each other a few times. Continue to twist the cables around each other all the way to the end to form one larger cable. Connect the three Micro Bit Lights to the Micro 2-4 Port Expansion Board (smaller ports).

4.) Connect a 5cm Connecting Cable to the larger port on this expansion board, then connect the other end of the cable to one of the OUT ports on the Flicker Effects Board

Connect another 5cm Connecting Cable to the IN port on the Flicker Effects Board, then connect the other end of this cable to a 6-Port Expansion Board. Connect the USB Power Cable to the 6-Port Expansion Board, then connect the other end of the USB cable to your USB Power Bank or wall adaptor (sold separately) to test the space shuttle lights are working OK with the flickering effect.

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, expansion board or effects board). To correct any issues with expansion board ports, please view the section addressing expansion board issues on our online troubleshooting guide. 5.) Place the Space Shuttle in front of the space station set and bring the cables and components around the left side of the stand. Turn the set around and connect a 15cm Connecting Cable to the 6-Port Expansion Board. Connect the other end of the cable to a White Strip Light

Connect a new 5cm Connecting Cable to the other end of the Strip Light, then peel off the adhesive backing protective paper on the back of the Strip Light.

6.) Thread the strip light through in between the stand’s vertical technic stand pieces, then wind the cable around the back stand leg and thread it back through in between. Turn the set around to the front, then stick the Strip Light underneath the top of the stand in the below position.

Turn the Power ON to test the strip 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, expansion board or effects board). To correct any issues with expansion board ports, please view the section addressing expansion board issues on our online troubleshooting guide. 7.) Turn the set around to the back again and stick adhesive squares onto the back of the two expansion boards and effects board. Mount them behind the bottom of the stand in the below positions. Neaten up cables by twisting excess cables into a bunch (to tighten the cable around the stand) as well as hiding the larger cable underneath the stand base as shown below.

Locate the spare end of the 5cm Connecting Cable from the Strip Light and connect it to an 8-Port Expansion Board. Connect a new 5cm Connecting Cable to the 8-port Expansion Board, then connect the other end of the cable to a new 6-Port Expansion Board.

8.) Turn the set back around to the front and disconnect the horizontal bar that connects over the two upper panels on the left side.

Disconnect the technic axle pin from the middle of the bar, then take a Cool White 30cm Bit Light and thread the connector end of it through the top of the bar. Pull the cable all the way out from the bottom then, carefully bend the LED component so that it is facing directly up. Hold the Bit Light together on top of the bar, then ensuring the cable is laid inside one of the grooves, carefully re-insert the technic axle pin.

CAUTION: Do not forcefully reconnect the pin all the way through, as this may break the cable. It is important that the cable is laid inside one of the technic axle grooves before inserting the pin. Note – with the Bit Light installed, the technic axle pin will not re-insert the whole way through. 9.) Reconnect the horizontal bar to the top of the panels, then loop the cable across the front toward the left. Slot the cable in between the space created. This will secure the cable, then bring the cable down the centre behind the long technic axle pin. Ensure the cable is brought down behind, so that it isn’t visible from the front of the set.

Slightly disconnect the light grey technic pin from the dark grey 1×1 brick, then bring the cable around and across the front to the left. Reconnect the light grey technic pin so that it slightly pushes the cable inside the dark grey 1×1 brick hole. This will secure the cable in place.

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 the LED light bars inside the lightsaber blade. Disconnect the lightsaber from Yoda, then carefully detach the left side section as show below:

Disassemble the lightsaber, then disconnect half of the trans green round bricks to allow us to fully remove the white technic axle bar.

2.) Organise the lightsaber blade into two equally long sections, then take out an LED Light Bar 12cm. Thread the top of the bar through the bottom half of the blade (through the technic hole). Thread the bar all the way through, then pull it out from the top. Continue to thread the entire bar through the bottom of the top half of the blade as shown below. Bring the bottom half of the blade up and reconnect it to the top half.

Take the second LED Light Bar 12cm and thread the top of the bar all the way through the bottom of the blade until it meets the bottom of the first led light bar. The cable from the first light bar should be kept inside one of the four grooves from the Technic axle.

Note: The two LED Light Bars have been designed to allow you to cut them to size, in case you have a slightly shorter lightsaber blade due to display reasons (less trans bright green bricks in the blade). If you find the LED Bars are too long, simply cut them to size at the top end of the bar (not the cable end). Ensure that you cut the bar in between the LEDs and the cut is above the circuit board resister. It is completely safe to cut the board.

The bottom of the second LED Bar should end just before the base of the last trans bright green round brick.

3.) Group the ends of the two light bar cables together and thread them through the top of the three 2×2 round plates. Pull the cables all the way out from underneath the plates, then reconnect them to the bottom of the blade.

Ensure the two cables are laid together inside one of the axle hole grooves, then take the provided LEGO Bar 3L (any colour) and connect it to the axle hole. The provided LEGO bar will be used to hold the blade to the handle section. The cables should be secured neatly inside the axle groove as shown below:

Ensure the two cables are laid through the gap of the bottom of the light grey 2×2 round plate, then reconnect this entire section to the handle section via the provided LEGO bar. Ensure the cables are laid out the opposite side of the lightsaber button, then reconnect the upper part of the handle.

4.) Connect the two LED light bar cables to a 6-Port Expansion Board. Take a 5cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the end port on the expansion board, then connect the other end of the cable to one of the OUT ports on the Pulse Effects Board (PFX).

Take a 15cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the IN port on the Pulse Effects Board, then connect the other end of the cable to a new 6-Port Expansion Board.

Take a USB Power Cable and connect it to the end port on the 6-port Expansion Board from previous step, then connect the USB connection end to your USB Power Bank or wall adaptor (sold separately). Turn it ON to test the LED light bars in the blade are working OK. Take this time to configure your desired pulse effect by choosing from one of the three settings via the switch. Fast Pulse, Medium Pulse, Slow Pulse.

Bring the Yoda left side section we disconnected at the start, then disconnect the following light grey 2×12 plate from the inside of it.

6.) Reconnect the lightsaber to Yoda’s hand ensuring the cables are laid behind. Bring the two cables down the inside of the left section and lay them inside as shown below. Reconnect the 2×12 plate with the cables laid underneath.

Fold the two cables into a neat bunch as shown below, then tuck it inside the following space, along with the 6-port expansion board and pulse effects board.

Carefully reconnect the entire left side section ensuring the cables are neatly laid out underneath.

7.) Take the RGB Control Board and connect a 5cm Connecting Cable to the IN port (+5V). Connect the other end of the connecting cable to a spare port on the 6-port expansion board near Yoda’s feet. Ensure the IR sensor from the RGB control board is facing up.

Take the Yoda display stand and turn it around, then take the following provided Black LEGO pieces:

Black Plate 1×6
Black Plate 1×2 modified w Handle on End
Black Tile 1×1 w Clip

Connect the above pieces to the back of the Yoda display stand as shown below:

8.) Take an RGB Strip Light and connect an RGB Connecting Cable 15cm to one of the ports, then take another RGB Connecting Cable 15cm and connect it to the Strip Light’s other port. Using it’s adhesive backing, stick the Strip Light to the bottom of the black 1×6 plate we connected to the back of the display stand. Position the plate and strip light so that it is facing upward (to shine up onto Yoda)

9.) Take the below provided pieces and follow the images to assemble brackets for a right and left spotlight.

2x Black Plate 1×6
2x Black Plate 1×2 modified w Handle on End
2x Black Tile 1×1 w Clip
2x Black Dish Inverted 3×3

10.) Take other end of the RGB Connecting Cable 15cm from the right side of the display stand and connect it to a new RGB Strip Light. Using the strip light’s adhesive backing, stick it onto the back of the 1×6 plate from the right spot light. Position the spot light on the right side of Yoda and tilt it upward so that it will shine up onto the right side.

Take the other end of the RGB Connecting Cable 15cm from the left side of the display stand and connect it to the remaining RGB Strip Light. Take remaining RGB Connecting Cable 15cm and connect it to the strip light’s other port. Using the strip light’s adhesive backing, stick it onto the back of the 1×6 plate from the left spot light.

Locate the spare end of the RGB 15cm Cable from previous step and connect it to one of the OUT ports on the RGB control Board located near Yoda’s feet. Position the spot light on the left side of Yoda and tilt it upward so that it will shine up onto the left side.

11.) Disconnect the minifig Yoda as well as it’s lightsaber. Connect the Light My Bricks Lightsaber Green to Yoda, then tuck the cable in between Yoda’s legs. Reconnect it to the display stand.

Neatly position the display stand in front of Yoda (so that the strip light attached behind will shine up onto Yoda), then neaten up the RGB control board and expansion board behind. Ensure the IR sensor on the control board is accessible to enable a clear line of sight signal for the remote control.

12.) Connect up your power source and turn everything ON. By default, the RGB Strip Lights are deactivated and need to be turned on via the RGB Remote Control. You can choose from 13 different colours and 5 different effects.

This finally completes installation of the Light My Bricks Star Wars Yoda 75255 Light Kit.

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.) Seperate the two buildings, then remove the top two levels of the blue building as we will install lights to this side first. Disconnect the lamp post as well as the following piece behind the flower bed.

Using your LEGO removal tool, disconnect the following tiles and pieces.

Take out the Light My Bricks Lamp Post and connect it to the base plate (without the 2×2 plate underneath it). Lay the cable down towards the building ensuring it’s laid in between studs as shown below, then reconnect the brown 2×4 plate with flower connected, along with the light grey tiles and blue flower.

2.) Turn the set around, and disconnect the two side flowers. Take out a Pink 30cm Bit Light and with the LED facing up, place it in the following position in between the brown studs. Reconnect the purple flower piece.

Take a Blue 30cm Bit Light and with the LED facing up, place it in the following position in between the brown studs. With the cable laying down in between studs, reconnect the following white bricks over the top

Take the remaining Pink 30cm Bit Light and with the LED facing up, place it down in the following position in between the brown studs on the left. Reconnect the blue flower, then ensuring both cables from the Pink Bit Lights are laid in between studs, reconnect the dark grey bricks to secure them in place.

3.) Turn the set around to the front again and reconnect the following bricks and pieces.

Take out the 12-Port Expansion Board and connect the three Bit Lights and the Lamp Post cable to it. Remove the ladder from it’s storage position.

Take the USB Power Cable and thread the connector end of the cable through the technic brick hole on the outside of the building on the right side. Pull the cable in from the inside of the building, then connect it to the far right port on the expansion board. Connect the USB connection end to your USB Power Bank or wall adaptor (sold separately) and turn it ON to test the lamp post and garden lights are working OK.

Take out the 50cm Connecting Cable and connect it to a spare port on the expansion board, then thread it through the technic brick hole that leads to the outside of the building (left side). Pull the cable all the way out from the outside. This cable will be used to connect up to the left building (book shop).

If you are connecting both sides of the building together, thread the cable through the black technic pin, then reconnect the pin to the bottom of the building.

5.) We will now light up the first floor starting with the two door lamps. First disconnect the long tile from above the front door, then remove the front door section. Slightly lift up the wall sections above each door lamp to allow us to remove the lamp sections as per below:

Disassemble each door lamp as shown below, then take out a White 30cm Bit Light and with the cable facing the back of the lamp base, place it over the top of the stud. Secure the Bit Light in place by reconnecting the trans clear brick over the top. Repeat this step to install another White 30cm Bit Light to the other door lamp.

Reconnect the right lamp ensuring you first thread the cable behind and lay it down in between studs. Push down the wall section above, then do the same to reconnect the left lamp. Reconnect the front door section

6.) Turn this section around so we can access the inside of the front wall. Take the Bit Light cable from the right door lamp and pull it directly up. Lay the cable around the studs above, then secure it down by reconnecting the long white tile.

Turn this section around to the front and disconnect the following two tiles from the left side. Bring both the door lamp cables across and over the left wall, laying them in between the front two studs. Secure them down by reconnecting the two tiles.

Place this section onto it’s right side, then slightly disconnect the white 1×12 plate from underneath. Pull both cables down the left side of the building and then slip them underneath and in between studs. Secure them in place by reconnecting the white 1×12 plate.

Use tape to secure the two cables to the outside wall.

7.) We will now light up the fire place inside the first floor. Disconnect the following tiles, plates, and bricks surrounding the fire place, then disconnect the fire place section as shown below:

Disconnect the grey bricks from underneath the fire place, then disconnect the trans orange flame piece.

8.) Take a White 15cm Bit Light and seperate the two wires near the LED as shown below. With LED facing forward, place it over the black clip on the right side. Each separated wire should be laid over the left side of this clip. Secure the Bit Light in place by reconnecting the trans orange flame piece.

Ensure the cable is laid underneath and toward the back, then reconnect the grey bricks underneath. Reconnect the fireplace section to the room, then reconnect all the surrounding sections we removed earlier.

9.) Disconnect the following two tiles, then take out a Wireless Connector end with the flat tile. With the cable facing the outside of the building, connect it to the following position.

Reconnect the white tile with studs to the left of it. If you have a spare white 1×1 tile, you can connect it to the remaining stud, otherwise, simply leave it as is.

Place the first floor onto it’s left side, then disconnect the white 1×10 plate from underneath. Pull both cables down the outside of the wall and lay them underneath toward the inside. Ensuring the cables are laid in between studs, reconnect the 1×10 plate to secure them both into place.

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 the headlights to the batmobile. Carefully remove the two headlight sections, then flip them over and disassemble the right headlight section as shown below.

Take a Warm White 30cm Large Bit Light and with the LED facing the opposite side to the sticker, place it inside the trans yellow brick. Bring the cable down the side where the sticker is, then secure the Bit Light in place by reconnecting the trans yellow plate over the top.

Repeat this step to install another 2x Warm White 30cm Large Bit Lights to the other two headlight pieces, then reconnect each one to the right headlight ensuring the LEDS are facing to the front.

2.) Bring the ends of the three bit light cables together and thread them through the space behind the headlights. Turn the batmobile onto it’s left side so we can access underneath. Find the three cables we threaded through behind the headlight and pull them all the way out at the front of the wheel.

Turn the vehicle back over and reconnect the right headlight ensuring the cables underneath are laid in between studs.

Turn the vehicle back onto it’s left side again and disconnect the front right wheel, then slightly bend the three cables into a hook shape and thread the cables through the following dark grey technic brick hole behind the wheel. Thread the cables through and pull them all the way out at the following space below.

Secure the cables around the top of the wheel axis by disconnecting the following light grey plate, laying the cables underneath in between studs, then reconnecting the plate over the top. It is important to ensure there is enough cable slack for the wheel to still be able to turn all the way left and right, so test this out to ensure all is ok.

3.) Thread the three cables through to the next space in the centre, then pull them all the way out.

Connect the three bit lights to a 12-Port Expansion Board. Take the AA Battery Pack and insert 3x new AA Batteries to it. Connect the Battery Pack cable to a spare port on the expansion board, then turn it on to test the right headlights are working OK

4.) Disassemble the left headlight section, then repeat step 1 and 2 to install another 3x Warm White 30cm Large Bit Lights and reconnect the headlight section.

Turn the vehicle back onto it’s right side and disconnect the front left wheel, then slightly bend the three cables into a hook shape and thread the cables through the following hole behind the wheel. Thread the cables through and pull them all the way out at the middle space as shown below.

5.) Secure the cables around the top of the wheel axis by disconnecting the following grey plate, laying the cables underneath in between studs, then reconnecting the plate over the top. It is important to ensure there is enough cable slack for the wheel to turn all the way left and right.

Pull the three cables all the way out the middle section and connect them to the 12-Port Expansion Board. Turn the AA Battery Pack ON to test both headlights are working OK.

6.) We will now install a light effect behind the front grill. First disconnect the top two sections surrounding it, then pull the grill section all the way out.

Pull back the rear wheel plate as shown below.

Take the Rotating White 30cm Bit Light and thread the connector side of the cable through the top of the rear wheel plate through the following hole.

Take an Adhesive Square and stick it to the bottom of the Rotating Bit Light, then stick the bit light to the top of the hole inside the rear wheel plate as shown below:

7.) Thread the Rotating Bit Light cable through the bottom space behind where the grill connects to, then turn the vehicle over and pull the cable all the way out from underneath as per below:

Before we reconnect the front grill, push the rear wheel plate back up but ensure you Do NOT push the technic pin the whole way back otherwise it will crush the rotating bit light inside. Push the rear wheel plate up so that you can still see the ridge that runs along the side of the wheel plate.

Ensure the Rotating Bit Light cable is facing up, then reconnect the grill section as well as the two arched sections above.

8.) From underneath the vehicle, thread the Rotating Bit Light cable under and pull it out the space where all the headlight cables are located.

Pull the cable all the way out, then connect it to a spare port on the 12-Port Expansion Board. Turn the Battery Pack ON to test the Rotating Bit Light inside the grill is working OK. The LEDs should be illuminating in a rotating sequence to give a nice “engine rev” effect inside the grill.

9.) We will now install some lights and effects for the machine guns. First, lift this section up and remove the front half from each gun section.

Disassemble one of the guns as shown below then take a White 15cm Bit Light and thread the connector end of the cable down the front of the barrel. Thread it all the way through. The LED should fit snug inside the top of the barrel, with the led facing sideways. Reconnect this section to the bottom half of the gun ensuring the cable is facing the bottom.

Repeat this step to install another White 15cm Bit Light to the other gun section.

10.) Take the left gun section and thread the cable down the space underneath where it pops out of. Reconnect the gun to the base section, then turn the vehicle onto it’s right side and pull the cable out at the following position.

Pull the cable all the way down, then thread it through the technic brick hole underneath and pull it out of the space where the rest of the cables are.

Take the Gun Effects Board (GFX) , and connect the Bit Light cable to the channel 1 port. Ensure the channel switch is set to the middle for the “machine gun” effect. Alternatively, you can choose from one of the other gun effects.

Take a 5cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the IN port (+5V) on the Gun Effects Board. Connect the other end of the connecting cable to a spare port on the 12-Port Expansion Board. Turn the AA Battery Pack ON again, to test the machine gun light is working along with the machine gun effect.

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 or effects board). To correct any issues with expansion board ports, please view the section addressing expansion board issues on our online troubleshooting guide. 22.) Take the right gun section and repeat the previous step to reconnect and thread the bit light cable down underneath the vehicle. Connect the cable to Channel 3 on the Gun Effects Board.

Turn the Power ON to test both Machine Guns lights are working OK. They should be both firing at random rates.

23.) Turn the Batmobile around and remove the following sections from the back of the vehicle and from the back of the cabin.

24.) Disconnect the AA Battery Pack from the 12-Port Expansion Board underneath the Batmobile, then take a 50cm Connecting Cable and connect it to a spare port on the 12-Port Expansion Board.

Follow the below images to thread the other end of the 50cm Cable through the following technic brick holes in the middle to lead it toward the back of the vehicle.

Neaten up cables from the components toward the front of the vehicle by grouping them together and twisting and folding them into a neat bunch. Tuck both effects board and expansion board inside the centre spaces as shown below:

25.) Pull remaining excess of the 50cm Connecting Cable all the way out from the rear side, then connect it to an 8-Port Expansion Board. Tuck the expansion board up the following space which leads to the inside of the trunk.

Turn the vehicle back around and you should be able to easily access the expansion board inside the trunk of the vehicle.

26.) Disconnect the following pieces from the inside of the trunk. We will be discarding these pieces as we require this space to house the AA Battery Pack.

Take a 15cm Connecting Cable and connect one end to the 8-Port Expansion Board underneath. Connect the other end of the cable to the IN port on the NC Push Board.

Take another 15cm Connecting Cable and connect one end to the OUT port on the NC Push Board. Connect the other end of the cable to a 6-Port Expansion Board. Set all of these components inside the rear section of the vehicle for now.

27.) Disconnect the following section from both sides of the cabin.

Disconnect the trans black 2×2 rounded bottom plate from one of the sections, then place a Cool White 30cm Bit Light in the middle (led facing up). Reconnect the trans black 2×2 rounded bottom plate over the top, then repeat this step to install another Cool White 30cm Bit Light to the other section.

Reconnect each section to the vehicle ensuring the cable is facing toward the back. Pull down the angled plate behind it so we can neatly lay the cable behind and in between studs. Reconnect the plate to conceal the wiring as shown below.

Repeat this step to reconnect the other section to the right side.

28.) Connect both Bit Light cables we just installed to the 6-Port Expansion Board from step 26, then take the AA Battery Pack and place it inside the back of the Batmobile ensuring the switch is facing up and closest to the back. Connect the Battery Pack cable to the 8-Port Expansion Board (Do NOT connect the battery pack to the 6-port Expansion Board.)

Turn the AA Battery Pack ON to test all the lights are working OK. Test the NC push board is also working OK. Push the lever to test the the outside cabin lights we just installed turn OFF. The lights should re-activate when the push lever is released.

29.) Take the following section we moved just behind the cabin and turn it over so we can access underneath. Take a White Strip Light and connect a 15cm Connecting Cable to it.

Using it’s adhesive backing, stick the strip light underneath this section in the following position. Ensure the cable is facing the right, then bend the cable down so that it is facing the back of this section, as shown below.

30.) Bring this section above the batmobile, then locate the NC Push Board and remove the protective paper on the back of it to expose the adhesive. With the push button facing the front, stick the NC Push Board underneath the top cabin section in the following position. Ensure that the NC push board is mounted exactly as shown below and aligned exactly so that we do not have any issues reconnecting this section later.

Turn this section over and reconnect it to the back of the Batmobile while ensuring all cables are laid neatly in between studs underneath. The NC Push Board button should be peaking out slightly so that it pushes in when the cabin door is closed.

Locate the other end of the 15cm Connecting Cable from the White Strip Light and connect it to a spare port on the 6-Port Expansion Board at the back of the vehicle. Turn ON the Battery Pack to test all internal and external cabin lights are working OK. The lights should activate when the cabin door is open, and deactivate when the cabin door is closed.

31.) We will now install the tail lights. First disconnect all of the following sections from the back of the vehicle as shown below.

Prop a large object like a book or the light kit box underneath the back of the Batmobile so that you can easily access underneath of the rear side, then disconnect the following section from each side of the tail light.

32.) Take the two tail light sections and disassemble the right tail light as per below. Take a Red 30cm Bit Light and thread the connector end of the cable through the top of the black round plate with centre open stud. Thread the Bit Light all the way through then carefully bend it so that the LED sits flat against the top of the plate. Secure the Bit Light in place by reconnecting the trans red dish over the top.

Reconnect the black tile underneath, then fold the cable underneath before reconnecting it to the tail light section. Ensure the cable is facing toward the left side as shown below:

33.) Take the following three pieces and swap out the black round plate 1×1 with a provided Black Round Plate 1×1 with open stud. Take another Red 30cm Bit Light and place it directly over the black tile’s stud. Secure it in place by connecting the provided black round plate with open stud over the top. Reconnect the trans red round tile.

Fold the bit light cable underneath the black tile before reconnecting it to the tail light section. Ensure the cable is facing the left side.

Fold both cables down the left side of the tail light, then reconnect this section to the back of the Batmobile. Ensuring both cables are folded down into the corner and laid in between studs before reconnecting the section we removed earlier over the top.

Thread both cables up the following section which leads to the inside of the trunk, then pull them all the way out from the inside. Reconnect the two sections we removed earlier to the right side.

34.) Repeat steps 32 and 33 to install another 2x Red 30cm Bit Lights to the left tail light section, this time, laying the cables toward the right side.

Fold the cables down the right side of the tail light, then reconnect it to the left side of the vehicle. Ensure you carefully lay the cables down in the corner before reconnecting the section we removed earlier over the top.

Thread the cables through to the inside of the trunk, then reconnect the following two sections to the left side.

Connect all four Red Bit Light cables to the 8-Port Expansion Board in the rear of the vehicle, then turn ON the Batter Pack to test the tail lights are all 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 or effects board). To correct any issues with expansion board ports, please view the section addressing expansion board issues on our online troubleshooting guide. 35.) Take a 5cm Connecting Cable and connect it a spare port on the 8-Port Expansion Board. Connect the other end of the cable to the IN port on the Flicker Effects Board (FFX).

Take a new 5cm Connecting Cable and connect it to one of the OUT ports on the Flicker Effects Board, then connect the other end of the cable to the remaining 8-Port Expansion Board in this kit.

Slide the AA Battery Pack out from the rear of the vehicle, then neaten up cabling by folding and twisting the tail light cables into a neat bunch. Tuck the bunched up cables underneath the red technic bar, then slide the AA Battery Pack back in ensuring the new 8-port expansion board from this step is still accessible.

36.) Take the jet section and remove the top technic wheel, then remove the 8 plates from the outside.

We will be sticking Bit Lights to the following 6 positions. Take note of the below image as a reference.

Take a White 15cm Bit Light and stick it to an Adhesive Square. Thread the connector end of the cable through the following space, then stick the Bit Light to the first location as shown below.

37.) Using the same method as in previous step, install another 5x White 15cm Bit Lights to this jet sections ensuring you stick the Bit Lights to the correct locations as shown below:

Turn this section around and continue.

38.) Reconnect the technic wheel to the top ensuring you the wheel holes align up to where the Bit Lights are installed underneath.

Reconnect the 8 plates to the outside of the Jet section, then from the back, seperate the cables into two groups. Twist or Braid the cables together as shown below.

Thread the two groups of cables all the way through the following two spaces, then reconnect the Jet section ensuring the two groups of cables are directly to each side.

Connect all six cables to the 8-Port Expansion Board, then turn on the AA Battery Pack to test the jet lights are working and flickering OK.

Test the machine guns can still be hoisted up and down by turning the Jet section. If you run into any issues, check the two group of bit light cables from the jet are neatly separated and installed exactly as shown in previous steps. 39.) Reconnect all the sections surrounding the back of the vehicle.

Please note: This page lists instructions for the LED light kit only. If you are wishing to purchase the Light My Bricks LEGO Star Wars UCS Imperial Star Destroyer (75252) LED light kit , please click here to view the product page

OK, Let’s begin Part 2!

47.) We will now install lights to the back jets. First disconnect the three larger jet sections, then follow the images below to disassemble one of them.

48.) Take a Cool White 30cm Large Bit Light and with the LED facing up, place it in the centre of the bottom of the rigid 2×2 round brick. Secure the Bit Light in place by reconnecting the trans light blue dishes over the top. You should be able to clearly see the LED peaking through the centre of the dishes.

Flip this section over and fold the cable down against the outside of the rigid brick, then thread the connector end of the cable through the inside of the Jet pieces, pulling the cable all the way out from the other side.

Reconnect the round technic pieces back on top, ensuring the yellow technic pin is connecting to the rigid brick on the inside of the jet. Push down the yellow technic pin so that the dark grey brick is flat and can easily reconnect to the back of the ship later.

Thread the jet light cable through the space just underneath where the left jet reconnects to, then from the inside of the ship, pull the cable all the way out. Securely reconnect the Jet to the back of the ship.

Connect the Large Bit Light to a new 6-Port Expansion Board.

48.) Follow the previous step to install another Cool White 30cm Large Bit Light to the middle Jet section.

Thread the Bit Light cable through the gap on the top right of where the middle Jet reconnects to. Pull the cable all the way out from the inside of the ship, then securely reconnect the middle Jet to the back of the ship.

From the back of the ship, thread the cable through the following space that leads to the inside, then from the the inside (turn the ship around to the right side), pull the cable all the way out. Locate the same 6-Port Expansion Board we connected the other Jet light to and pull it over to this side, then connect the bit light cable to it.

49.) Install another Cool White 30cm Large Bit Light to the right large Jet (using the same method used in previous steps), then thread the cable through the following gap just underneath where the right jet reconnects to. Pull the cable all the way out from the inside of the ship, then securely reconnect the right Jet to the back of the ship.

Connect the Bit Light cable to the same 6-port Expansion board as per previous steps, then connect a new 5cm Connecting Cable to a spare port. Connect the other end of the 5cm cable to one of the OUT ports on the Pulse Effects Board (PFX)

Take another 5cm Connecting Cable and connect it to the IN port on the Pulse Effects Board, then connect the other end of the cable to a spare port on the 12-Port Expansion Board on the right side of the ship.

Turn ON the power to test the large jet lights are working OK. They should also be pulsing via the effects board. We can configure the desired effect later on when we connect up the other jet lights.

51.) Take one of the jet sections and disassemble it as shown below, then take a Cool White 30cm Bit Light and thread the connector end of the cable through the top of the the trans light blue round brick. Pull the cable all the way out from the other side, then carefully bend the LED so that it sits flat against the top of the brick. Secure the Bit Light in place by connecting a provided Trans Light Blue Round Plate 1×1 over the top.

Carefully reconnect the black bar inside the round brick, then thread the connector end of the cable along with the black bar through the top of the jet section.

The cable should be laid inside space between the bar and corner axis.

Thread the connector end of the cable along with the black bar through the top of the two rigid 2×2 bricks, then securely reconnect everything together.

Ensure the cable is laid in the space in between black bar and axis.

52.) Bring this jet section close to the back of the ship and thread the bit light cable through the following space that leads to the inside of the ship. Pull the cable all the way out from the inside of the ship, then securely reconnect the jet section to the back as shown below.

From the inside of the ship, find the bit light cable and connect it to a new 6-Port Expansion Board.

53.) Using the same method we used to install the first smaller jet light, install another Cool White 30cm Bit Light to another Jet.

Thread the cable through the space just above the bottom jet at the back of the ship before securely reconnecting the jet. From the inside of the ship, pull the bit light cable out and connect it to the same 6-port expansion board we connected the first smaller jet light to.

Thread the 6-Port Expansion Board through the middle space into the right side of the ship. This will make it easier to locate the expansion board when we need to connect the other two smaller jets on the right side.

54.) Install another 2x Cool White 30cm Bit Lights to the two remaining smaller jets, then thread the cables through the following spaces before securely reconnecting them to the back of the ship. Pull each bit light cable out from the inside of the right side of the ship, then connect both bit lights to the 6-port Expansion board from previous step.

55.) Take a 5cm Connecting Cable and connect one end to a spare port on the 6-port expansion board we connected the smaller jet lights to. Connect the other end of the cable to the second OUT port on the Pulse Effects Board.

We can now configure the pulse effects board to your desired effect. This effects board has 3 different effects, which can be set using the 3-way switch on the board. Fast Pulse, Medium Pulse, Slow Pulse. Turn ON the power to test all the jet lights are working and configure your desired effect.

57.) Take the following middle section we removed earlier and remove the first half of this section. Disconnect the light grey slope tile at the front, then take a Cool White 30cm Bit Light and with the cable facing down, place it over the front stud. Secure the light in place by connecting a provided Trans Clear Slope 30 1x1x2/3 over the top, then reconnect the two halves together.

Reconnect this section to the top of the ship, ensuring the bit light cable is laid underneath but is still accessible for us to connect it up later on.

58.) Turn the ship around again to the right side, then take the back right panel and disconnect the three laser cannon sections from it as shown below.

Take one of the laser cannons and disassemble as per below.

59.) This next process will be very similar to the process used to install the lights to the previous laser cannons. Take a Green 15cm Micro Bit Light and carefully bend the LED so that it is facing longways up. Thread the Bit Light inside the hole of one of the cannon pieces, then fold the cable down the side of the canon. Ensuring the cable is laid directly on the side of the stud, reconnect the 1×1 round plate over the top. The cable should be secured in between the plates.
