Example: Pavilion 15-CW1004na
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hi,

I currently use a HP Pavillion 15-CW1004na laptop computer.

Motherboard is HP8615 Ryzen3  3300U with Radeon Vega 6 graphics.

I want to upgrade the keyboard to a backlit version. I looked in the service manual for the computer & it has a backlit keyboard with part number listed (L24752-xx1).

I'm not sure how many model versions of the HP Pavillion series the service manual covers & if the listed part is compatible with my Pavillion 15-CW1004na.

 

My HP8615 seems to have a socket for the LED power to a backlit keyboard ( at least the socket seems to be in the same position as the motherboard diagram illustrates.)

 

Could someone please let me know if this laptop has actually got a compatible backlit keyboard.

Many Thanks from a confused owner.

Normally, you need a system board with connectors for lights on the keyboard. Please use page 65 of the following Guide to work out 

  1. Color
  2. Language

of the key board and order the right part. You have to replace the WHOLE top, not just keyboard.

 

Regards.
