G15 5520 Backlight Effects and Colors
I am the proud new owner of a Dell G15 5520, but ican't help but wonder..
why won't the fn+f5 (backlight) and fn+f(9) do anything .. all the other f1-12 keys are working fine except theese two.
and also how do i change the color of my backlit keyboard ? .. it changes color on boot but once windows opens it is stuck on turquoise, i tried the alienware command center app but it does not support this particular device.

You'd need to check and see whether a keyboard with a different backlight color was offered on your model system -- but note: the keyboard on this model is fused to the palmrest, so the entire palmrest assembly needs to be replaced.
Even if you can find an assembly with a different color backlight, carefully examine the service manual - the way this system is engineered, literally everything inside (system board and all other components) must be removed to change the keyboard.

Hi there, yes I'm having the same problem with the backlit keyboard lighting. Its stuck on orange. I cannot toggle through the other colours using the Fn + C keys. Nothing happens. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks Erwin
