ChromeOS Flex Keyboard Keys

Hi I have a 2009 MacBook pro that I just switched to ChromeOS Flex and the Computer Has backlit keys but the keyboard key (f5 and f6) does not work. Is there any way I can fix this?

    Hi cohenbaha​ thanks for getting in touch. We had one of our ChromeOS Flex Customer Engineers test this combination in the lab and unfortunately after some experimentation they don't think the keyboard backlighting works on these very old devices.
