Hello there, I have disassembled and assembled back my laptop: HP pavilion gaming 15-ak031tx, to clean the fan and heatsink. However, I found that left-hand-side of the keyboard (Qwerty keys) light was dimmer than the other side (The right numerical keys). The keys are still light up but not as brighter as before, very dim. I have no knowledge on this, can anyone please help me to solve this?

Many thanks.
 
did you check if the keyboard does not have 2 led under it one of them could have been off is holder so light is dim .
