Hello! I found only one way for keyboard backlight working. When the battery is completely discharged to 0% and I connected to charger and turn on my laptop, the keyboard backlight working about 2 days. I wanna that working always. Can you check my files? I made 2 debug files(1 when backlight working and 1 when not) Do you have any idea how can I switch on always? And what the difference between two files? Thanks in advance!

What keys on the laptop provide control over the keyboard backlight?

Use ACPIDebug.kext to see if they are calling EC query methods (instrument your EC query methods so you can see which (if any) _Qxx methods are called when pressing the keys).

I've installed acpidebug kext and applied 2 dsdt patches. But I didn't get any result in console. I made a new debug file. Can you check that kext and patches are correct? Otherwise if I can't increase/decrease keyboard backlight with fn keys It's not problem. Only thing I need that the keyboard backlight should always working. But I can't enable just if battery completely discharged and connected again to charger.

Method _Q70 or _Q66 not related?
