Does my laptop have a backlit keyboard?

I bought this from costco last month, not sure if this was relevant. https://www.costco.co.uk/Computers/Laptops-MacBooks/HP-Pavilion-Intel-Core-i5-16GB-RAM-512GB-SSD-156...

I have booted into the BIOS and there is an option for backlit keyboard, this is switched on.

Many thanks

Hi, Paul:

Your notebook does not appear to have a backlit keyboard.

Below is the link to the parts list for your notebook's product number.

HP PartSurfer

The top cover/keyboard part number and description is:

N02055-031

SPS-TOP CVR nSDC 22C1 W/KB NSV UK

While that doesn't help a whole lot, if you do a search by the HP part number, I found this eBay listing for that part number.

HP Pavilion 15-EG Palmrest Cover UK Keyboard Trackpad Silver N02055-031 Grade C | eBay

If the keyboard was backlit, there would be a function key with a keyboard icon with 'rays' above it.

The keyboard in the illustration does not have a Fn key like that.

See the illustration of the Fn keys in chapter 2, page 12 of the service manual.
