Backlight not working after keyboard upgrade
Hi,
I replaced my macbook pro keyboard with one I bought from ebay. I assumed the backlight was separate from the keyboard (layer under keyboard) but now i'm not so sure as after I replaced the keyboard, the backlight doesn't seem to be working anymore. Does anyone know whether the backlight is actually part of the individual keys on the keyboard, or is it on the layer under the keyboard? The white sheet that is glued to the keyboard?
Thanks,
P
Is this a good question?

Just an update. Installed new used keyboard and backlight and my backlight wasn't working again so I moved the connector around a bit, blew around it and reinserted the connector and the backlight started working. I have a feeling that a bit of dust or something must have been impinging on the connection. Happy to say my macbook pro is 100% working again! 8 years and counting now! :)
