Does your backlight work when you quick press your top left CTRL button?

Hmmm. That is very odd. Normally it is all or none when there is odd behavior for gesture and the backlight. There is one more thing you can try:

Awesome. With master reset now backlight works with gesture on without activity. Tomorrow I change to sunset and let you know. Many thanks

Yes if I press the CTRL button the backlight works
If you change your Backlight > Not During Activity > Gesture setting to On, does your gesture motion work?
NOTE: To get the gesture feature to work the best and most often by recognized by your accelerometer sensor, it works best if you put your arm in front of you with your watch pointing to the sky. Then rotate your wrist so you are now looking directly at your Instinct Solar display.
Pleaser also check your Settings > User Profile > Wrist is set to the correct wrist you were your watch on or your accelerometer sensor will not pickup the gesture motion.
I just realized that it doesn't work with gesture on either. Only the backlight gesture works in during activity

If you continue to have the same issue, we will need to replace your watch. Please use the Outdoor Product Support contact information you will see on the bottom of the reset article. We will be happy to work with you further. (If you just bought your Instinct Solar series watch, you can return it back to the retail store or online vendor as long as within their return window allowed.)

if I change to after sunset the gesture always turn on the backlight 24 hours of the day
Just to be sure that the obvious is not being forgotten: The sunrise/sunset hours are correct in your watch? The best way to ensure it is probably to start an activity that uses GPS, just to be sure that the watch has the correct position and, therefore, the correct sunrise/sunset hours.
Yes the sunrise/sunset is perfect set. And the backlight always turn on when i raise my arm 24 hrs
I’m having this same issue, but on a Garmin Instinct 2 - Solar - Graphite color.
