The backlit keyboard is an option on this series.

 

Note the description -- this means the Notebook must be disassembled to replace the keyboard.

Keyboard replacement is not a novice level task.

Depending on your skill level,

Consider:  Take the computer to a competent laptop hardware technician to have the keyboard replaced.
