Hi baterija,

The inspiron 15R SE 7520 laptop and Inspiron 17R SE laptop has the backlit keyboard. Inspiron N5040 and N5050 do not come with the backlit keyboard. Usually for backlit keyboard to work there will be an additional port on the motherboard. In the backlit keyboard apart from the keyboard cable it has additional cable attached to it. You can contact Dell and purchase the backlit keyboard and the part number will be 9MN92 (for US and Canada)

Hi,

The keyboard mentioned in the eBay link is for the XPS L502. Though the keyboards look the same, it is the connection that holds the main key. On XPS L502X the keyboard is fixed with two screws however on Inspiron 7520 there are four clips that hold the keyboard with the hinge. You may refer to the service manual for both the systems.

In case you are looking to get a keyboard online, I would suggest you to search for Inspiron 7520 specific keyboards.

I know tahat there are diferent ways to atact keyboard on computer but on these link for L502x is no screws on picture and no places for them it look like there is just 4 clips (look at the picture on ebay)

So can you tell me witch model gave same keyboard as my 7520?

Because there is nowhere specific keyboard for 7520 on internet

I think because it ti new and there is no additional parts on ebay yet

So is there any model with simular keyboard?

Hi, As you know, the Inspiron 7520 is one of the new systems and I am not sure if any other old model keyboard will be compatible with it. You may contact our support and order the part 9MN92.
