A direct-fit replacement for your Dell Latitude 7420 – tested, backlit, and ready to ship
If your Latitude 7420 has a few dead keys, a sticky spacebar, or backlight that flickers, this OEM-spec replacement keyboard is the fix you need. It's the same US English ANSI layout that ships on most Pakistan-market Dell laptops, with white LED backlighting and two-stage brightness. Priced at Rs. 4,799 for 2026, it's one of the most cost-effective repairs you can do – a fresh keyboard restores typing feel without buying a new machine. I'm Sayam, and every unit we sell at N.N Laptops in Hafeez Center, Gulberg III, Lahore is bench-tested before it reaches our shelf.
The Dell Latitude 7420 backlit keyboard replacement is a tested OEM-spec replacement keyboard with US English ANSI layout, drop-in compatible with Latitude 7420 and 7410, 7400 laptops manufactured around 2021. It features white LED backlighting with two-stage brightness, matte black keycaps, and the original ribbon-cable connector. Priced for the Pakistan market and in stock at N.N Laptops, Hafeez Center, Lahore.
Why this keyboard works for your Dell Latitude 7420
This is not a generic universal keyboard. It is the exact OEM-style replacement part used by authorised Dell service centres — same plastic frame, same metal backplate, same FFC ribbon cable pin-out, and the US English ANSI layout that ships on most Pakistan-market Dell laptops. Pulled from a tested donor unit, every single key has been verified using a keyboard-test utility before it reaches our shelf. The backlight is fully functional – white LEDs with two brightness levels controllable from Windows via Fn+Space or the dedicated key.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this keyboard fit my Dell Latitude 7420?
Yes — this replacement is designed specifically for the Dell Latitude 7420 chassis manufactured around 2021. It uses the same screw layout, ribbon cable, and frame as the original part. If your laptop is an early or late revision, WhatsApp us at 0314 4000131 with the service tag and we'll verify before shipping.
Is the backlight controllable from Windows?
Yes — the Fn + Space (or model-specific) shortcut controls the backlight directly from BIOS, so no extra driver is required. All shortcut keys including volume, brightness, and airplane mode behave exactly like the original keyboard.
How long does installation take?
For most Dell Latitude laptops, swap takes 20-40 minutes by a technician. If you bring the laptop to our Hafeez Center shop, we'll install the keyboard in-store free of charge with any keyboard purchase. Walk-in or book ahead via WhatsApp 0314 4000131.
What if the keyboard is faulty?
Every keyboard is tested key-by-key on a working Dell Latitude 7420 chassis before listing. We back it with a 30-day check warranty — if any key fails within 30 days, bring the part back to Hafeez Center for a no-questions replacement or refund.
