caps lock green light not working

Hi everyone, it is strange but my Macbook caps lock key is working but its Green light is not working. I got it checked at Apple store and they says whole keyboard needs to be changed of approx THB 11,000.

This is absurd and do not make any sense. Any other hack or solution? Thanks in advance.

P.S. software is updated

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 13.1

My Caps Lock key not working. My Caps Lock key on my Magic keyboard, iMac running Sonoma 14.0, does not lock. The green light illuminates only when holding the key down and then CAPS can be entered. As soon as the Caps Lock key is then released, only small case is entered. Caps Lock will not stay on. Why?

Caps lock key not lighting when pressed I have a new MacBook Air M2. When I press the caps lock it does not light up. I have tried everything I know but still will not work. Apple support unable to help. I believe this happened when I upgraded to Ventura MacOS.

Caps lock light always on (MBP M1 2021) I have a MacBook Pro (13-inch, M1, 2021). My caps lock light won't turn off. Even if my computer is actually off, it is still on. It's bright when it's on and it's half-bright when it's off. It dulls with every key I press, but it comes straight back to being bright when I release it. When the caps lock is on, it messes with my typing: when I press the space bar, I get HNY6 ] (seems to be all in a line except [ ) when I press the down arrow, I get IK*{< (I think with shift down) when I press the ` button, I get AQZ1` This doesn't happen when caps lock is dulled or with an external keyboard. I've tried all the standard troubleshooting: checked Text to Speech checked Slow Keys checked Keyboard Viewer (it shows as on/off as it should) changed keyboard language tried to reset NVRAM (even though it doesn't actually make a second startup chime) reset SMC tried checking First Aid on my startup disk external keyboard works properly I've also run MalwareBytes to check whether anything came across to my computer from the popups. I can find a lot of people who have had this issue, but all have only had the above troubleshooting and no response from the original person as to whether it worked or anyone else adding any other possible ideas. I'd love to avoid being without the computer for any length of time to get it repaired...so I'm hoping there's an obvious solution out there.

Apple doesn't repair, Apple replaces. you can also use an external KB. But since it appears you elected not to buy into the extended warranty, the cost to "repair" is yours to pay.

That's not a relevant answer.

So bad. :(
