stelmo Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 I have a couple of Galaxy MK8 keypads and for some reason the key backlight is hardly visible My other MK8 is bright but these 2, barely lit, is there some way to adjust it? I see no controls on the PCB. The screen backlight seems OK Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/42317-galaxy-mk8-keypad-backlight/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what you mean there all 3 are MK8, 2 of them seem have very little in the way of backlight behind the keys Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/42317-galaxy-mk8-keypad-backlight/#findComment-478607 Share on other sites More sharing options...
norman Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Have you tried swapping the RKP's to see if it's a voltage issue? Nothing is foolproof to a sufficiently talented fool.

norman Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Unlikely but just a thought, I've never had issues with them but the LED's are easily replaced if you are OK with a decent soldering iron.
