MSI Katana B12VFK keyboard backlight

05-23-2024, 06:51 AM

Hi. I need to replace the keyboard in MSI Katana B12VFK. Unfortunately, there are no keyboards with a wide backlight flex available. However, they come with a narrow flex. Do you think that if I put a connector that the manufacturer did not install in this version, will the keyboard backlight work?

Carefully measure the voltage to ground of each of the missing connector's PCB pads. The large cluster of pins = ground. This will confirm if the exercise will be successful or not.

by HTR-Informatique

Hello,

YouTube video of the problem encountered: https://youtube.com/shorts/q7TLNv36LUo

I am a pro and I have a problem that I have never seen despite my 7.5 years of experience on my own and my thousands of repairs, on a customer's Dell G3 15 3500.

On this PC I have already changed the complete palmrest because the keyboard was no longer working properly.

I also changed the screen because the PC fell and the screen was broken.

I changed the battery with a new and original battery.

I also had corrosion/oxidation on the...

Macbook pro A1706 / Backlight flex cable compatibility

by gabrielA7

Hey guys!!

I’ve got a question here!
I have a MacBook Pro A1706 that needs the backlight cable replacement — the well-known issue — but the problem is that the code on my original cable is 821-00571-A, and the one I have on hand to install is 821-01229-A.

Well, I asked ChatGPT about it, and the guy told me they’re not compatible and it could even burn the backlight circuit!!

Here’s what the bot told me:

I said to him: “I’m going to install the 821-01229-A.”

ChatGPT replied:
Understood — but before you solder or install the 821-01229-A,

Hello, I have an "ASUS ROG Strix G713QR" laptop, and for approx. 3 months I have the following problems:

1. Laptop keyboard doesn't work
2. The backlight on the laptop keyboard doesn't work
3. The x2 side LEDs (red) on the laptop don't work

The power button works, the touchpad works, and all the USB, HDMI, Ethernet, etc. ports work.

I already tried to reinstall all the drivers and reinstall Windows. So I don't know what to try anymore that is software-related.

But I am strongly aiming that it is somehow a BIOS-related problem,...
