[QUOTE="Theo Baldus, post: 688690, member: 60681"] Hi to all, so here's my problem; I'm a musician and about a month ago, a mic-stand fell on the back of my display, leaving a small dent and some scratches on the cover. This being a real shame, everything else still worked perfectly, so I just thought I'd leave it the way it is, since its just an esthetic problem. But yesterday, my keyboard-backlights quit working from the ',-l-p' keys on to the right. Now I'm quite sure this has nothing to do with the mic-stand incident, because to my knowing, the crash would have damaged the display first, instead of the keyboard-lights. Since I'm still under Apple Care, I would like to get the keys fixed asap, but I'm expecting them to tell me it's because of a human error, since the dent on the case is about in the same area... Could someone give me any thoughts on what to do? Did someone have a similar problem to mine? Is there a DIY fix to this? Is it a known problem for the backlighting to fail? Thnx in advance guys...
