Although it sounds like you are most likely familiar with it, if you are having issues adjusting your keyboard backlight behavior, you may find the following article helpful:

If you are still having issues, or the backlight behavior doesn't seem to match the settings you have set, you may want to try resetting the System Management Controller (SMC), as outlined in this article:

Feb 15, 2015 5:11 AMby scrutinizer82,HelpfulHi, brenden dv. Thanks for your reply, much appreciated. Reading these two articles has suggested me to toggle the sliders in Battery tab of Energy Saver prefpane, I changed the default setting for Display Sleep Mode switch to after 15 min, deselected Reduce Brightness Automatically. As for now, it seems to have an effect but I'm not certain if it IS the fix. I know that you're likely not to respond but thank you, anyway.
