the keyboard has to be turned on and connected to your tablet with Bluetooth. This is an indication that your hooked up.It must be ready to go, when you start typing the backlight comes on the top of the keyswhen you stop typing the light goes off in about 2 sec. If your not connected with Bluetooth,the keyboard doesn't light up at all.

Yes, the light should turn on by plugging it in. I know because I own it. Try plugging it in to a different outlet. If it doesn't turn on, the product is defective

I took it into a dark room and I could not see the screen. I suggest that you go online to Sony and download the owner's Manuel. I don't see anything about a backlight in it, but maybe I just missed it.

Check the electronic eye on top of the light. I had a similar problem and it was the electronic eye. I bought a replacement at Home Depot for a little under $10 and that took care of it. Hope you can figure it out!

If the LED doesn't turn on while you are charging it, then the unit itself might be defective. If it does, then try holding the power button for 60 seconds. If, again it doesn't turn on, then it is also a broken unit.

Yes there IS a backlight, but it only comes on when you push one of the buttons, and then shuts off in a few moments.

I was able to play with the Advanced Settings in service menu, back light menu. The default is to bright, just play with it and it should correct some of the color issues,

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.

I would send it back. I have had mine for some time and have had no issues with mine. Sounds like a bad light sensor. Good luck.

Yes, it should be illuminated in blue. It sounds like the backlight on your's may be broken.

I just received mine yesterday. The one I have has a backlit keyboard. When you first power on the device the keyboard backlight comes on, then after a moment or two of no use the light flashes briefly before then turning the backlight on. Just pressing keys does NOT turn the backlight on again. If you want the backlight again, there is a button on the side of the keyboard that lights the keyboard up again.

It must be defective or you didn't turn on the switch that turns on the lights. The switch is on the underside of the disk in the middle. Maybe the batteries aren't good. Check for that too! But, you do have to turn on the lights for it to have lights.

You have to turn off the Light Sensor and Dynamic Backlight first, then it will let change the brightness.

Mine's backlit. There should be a lightbulb button just below the Left/Right mouse click buttons, on the lower, left-hand side of the device.

I have more of a backlight issue when viewed from off angle. There is a white fuzzy band of excess brightness on the right 1/8 of screen, that washes out the color. is this similar to your set?

Mine was installed yesterday and already with new duracells the "replace" is flashing, and the backlit display never goes off. But I think I must have gotten a faulty unit.
