g571jl rog asus keyboard backlight not working after MB replacement

Hello,

I recently had to send my motherboard in for GPU repair and since it came back the Keyboard Background lights are no longer working. I checked the ribbon cable and everything looks connected.

It appears to be hardware, because when I first turn the machine on the backlights don't come on like they usually do. I tried to reinstall the ATK drivers for the keyboard but it did not appear to make a difference. The volume and other functions keys seem to work without issue.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance

i followed the link you provided, but I need a 6MB BIOS image from a computer with working KB lights. Can someone please upload and send me the bios image so I can flash my bios with it?

Thanks in advance
