The backlight on my Apple MacBook’s Keyboard is not working.

When the keyboard’s backlight starts acting up here are a few ways to get it working again.

1.  You need to check the keyboard’s backlight brightness level as it might be set to a minimum.

2.  Disable the automatic turn-off of the keyboard backlight by adjusting the brightness level. The light-sensing feature may be causing the issue.

3.  For Intel-based MacBook or iMac models, you can try resetting the SMC to fix this keyboard backlight issue. SMC (System Management Controller) is a chip that controls and stores critical details of the different hardware functions in your Mac. One of them is the keyboard brightness.

Finally:

If the backlight is still not working it could be the backlight connector or logic board issues.

Please book your Mac in for an assessment to determine the problem.
