Before You Begin

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 re-

sult 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.
