Now the keyboard lights up on start or restart, but then stops. It was working on my Inspiron LS and timing out perfectly until recently.

Does anyone know how to have this feature remain on ALL the time instead of timing off.

I had backlighting and no longer have it so I am therefore sure it came with it. I took the keyboard off and checked the connection underneath and it was not tight. Any other suggestions? Did you check the LED connection, in some cases if that is loose while replacing the keyboard the backlit stops working. Perfect instructions! Thank you! I replaced it with a blacklit keyboard.

And we have seen that in high end laptops there are backlit keyboards which come with a sensor to automatically turn on the backlit option in case of low light conditions.
