LED lights are one of the greatest draws of the SteelSeries gaming keyboard. Use this guide if you are experiencing problems such as dim, dead lighting, and flickering with the LED lights on your SteelSeries Apex 64145 keyboard.
Within this guide, you will be removing the back of the keyboard in order to replace the broken LED lights. However before you begin, make sure to check your keyboard's software settings and ensure that the LED brightness isn't toned down.

Once ready to start, disconnect your keyboard and allow it to cool down. This guide will walk you through the steps to restore your keyboard lights back to full functionality.
