This came with both the keyboard and the backlight. Of yours works you can use it, but it is up to you. Just be careful not to tear the backlight. Also have patience because there are 72 screws holding that keyboard in place. It will take time but works great if you do it right.

Yes it will work , take old back up light out and replace with back up Alert. Very easy to do.

Alberto, There can be several Issues causing the Mac Backlight not work. I would check with the Seller that you bought the Laptop from. He does not offer a Repair or Replacement, I would recommend Returning the Mac since it is not working properly. You have a right as a Buyer to Return the Defective Merchandise. If you have any questions, Feel Free to Ask.

Make sure everything is on plug and unplug it. That key combination at the same time shifts the colors and works fine on mine.

It should come back on in whichever cycle you have it in. My light works that way. Neil

all keys on the front are backlighted...ist a combination of hitting the "function" key and the "backlight" key.

Dear Customer, you can press FN+PAUSEBREAK to switch backlight color but we are afraid it could not be all purple as our listing showed. sorry.

Lisa Nankov's answer is correct. Some units do not respond to all functions. Mine for example is stuck on the purple backlight.... can't change it.

No it's not back lit. I am sorry but I don't know where my instructions are. I have tried it with several combinations and it's not apparent what it's function is.

Oh I so wished mine would have warned me........... lol mine is and older model and when it went out, it just went out and you did without tv for the time it took to get bulb shipped. But, yes if it is telling you that your backlight is going out this would be the fix.......... double check the number of lamp, it should be on the back of your television somewhere around the lamp, that or just take the lamp out it should be on that also.

Yes. In addition you have the option to turn off the backlight completely, keep it on all the time, or have it turn on only in low light conditions.

Didn't notice any back light. I believe it's just black numbers against grey screen.

Yes but ussually the lamp will go after a few on / off clips and the screen will be black. Now if it makes noise like a turning wheel it could be the color wheel going bad..i will try the lamp.first since sooner or.later you gonna needed they dont last long.

Mine is not backlit and the F5 key didn't "turn on" the backlit keyboard option (as another poster mentioned). My F5 key turned the mouse off and on.

No. Mine does not seem to have a backlight on the display in any mode or range selection I could try.
