How do I off the keyboard illumination? Previously was using the MacBook Pro and there are the F5 and F6 to adjust the brightness or to off the light up. Thanks.
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 11.0
Create a new plist file in `~/Library/LaunchAgents` named `com.local.KeyRemapping.plist` and add the following code. Save the file and reboot. F5 and F6 will now work as keyboard brightness up/down keys.

It’s not selected that’s the problem
I also have another problem is sometimes the keyboard brightness option goes missing in the control centre. Had to add that to menu then it re-appears again in the control centre.
