            Body Step 3















                                                                                           Slide the motor
                                                                                     sub-assembly into the
                                                                                body. The slots on the side
                                                                     of the motor should be aligned with
                                                           the 1x2 plates with door rail. Attach the wire
                                                        brick to the top of the motor. Make sure the wires
                                                        run along the groove on the top of the motor and
                                                        out the back.

               Body Step 4








               Attach the plate
               as shown; this
               secures the motor.
               Make sure the wire
               is hanging out
               the back of the
               motor (not shown).

                        Planning Wire Placement

                        The wire needs to face out the back of the motor for two reasons:
                        It will be easier to connect the wires to the RCX, and you would not
                        want the wire to get caught in the gears.
