On my HP ENY 13-AH0051wm, I can turn the backlit keyboard lights on and off; but, they stay on all the time and drain my battery.  How can I  setup a time-out feature or at least dim the lights?  Thank you!!

Hi @BluegrassBill

 

Welcome to the HP Support Community. I'd be happy to assist you with the Backlit Keyboard. 

 

Please try these steps -

 

1.) Restart the notebook, and then immediately press the F10 repeatedly until the BIOS opens.

2.) When the BIOS opens, use the arrow keys to navigate to the Advanced tab.

3.) Navigate to Built-in Device Options, and then press Enter.

4.) In the Built-in Device Options, select Backlit keyboard timeout.

5.) Press the spacebar to open the keyboard backlight settings, and then select the timeout setting you want.

NOTE: If there is not a setting for the backlight timing in the BIOS, this behavior might not be supported on the notebook. 

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.
