US Backlit Keyboard for X571 Series

This replacement keyboard fits Asus X571, X571F, X571G, X571GD, X571GT and X571U models. It restores the original US layout backlight function for owners whose built-in keyboard has failed or been damaged. Buyers who need a different regional layout or a non-backlit variant cannot use this part.

Installation requires full laptop disassembly

The supplier advises performing the swap only while the system is powered off. Most users are encouraged to have a qualified technician carry out the work to avoid accidental damage to ribbon cables or the chassis. Builders who are uncomfortable removing the top case and routing delicate flex cables should not attempt the repair themselves.

Designed for sustained typing sessions

The keyboard uses the same backlight components as the factory unit, so illumination remains consistent during extended use. No thermal throttling or brightness decay occurs because the part draws the same low power as the original. Users who expect programmable macros or per-key RGB control will not find those features here.

Questions about this item

How do I verify the backlight works after installing the SN6581BL keyboard?

Power on the laptop in a dim room; the US-layout keys should illuminate evenly across the board. If lighting is absent or patchy, re-seat the ribbon cable and check the backlight connector before reassembling.

What comes with the AEXKTU01010 replacement and what must I source separately?

The package contains the complete US backlit keyboard assembly with the SN6581BL part number. You will need a small Phillips screwdriver, a plastic pry tool, and thermal pads if the original ones are damaged during disassembly.

Which part number — 1010 or 1020 — matches my Asus X571GD?

Both AEXKTU01010 and AEXKTU01020 are listed as compatible with the X571GD. Confirm the exact P/N printed on your original keyboard before ordering to ensure the correct fit.
