I have gone through your Post and I would like to help
If the blacklight stays on for only a few seconds, the backlight timeout setting might need configuring in the BIOS.
NOTE: Not every Notebook support this feature. If there is not a setting for the backlight timing in the BIOS, this behavior might not be supported on the notebook.
Your BIOS version and screens might vary.
-
Restart the notebook, and then immediately press the F10 repeatedly until the BIOS opens.
-
When the BIOS opens, use the arrow keys to navigate to the Advanced tab.
-
Navigate to Built-in Device Options, and then press Enter.
-
In the Built-in Device Options, select Backlit keyboard timeout.
-
Press the spacebar to open the keyboard backlight settings, and then select the timeout setting you want.
NOTE:
If you select Never, the backlight remains on which could quickly drain the notebook battery power.
