Same here:

*** Welcome to IELM ***  Type (describe-mode) for help.
ELISP> tooltip-frame-parameters
((name . "tooltip")
 (internal-border-width . 2)
 (border-width . 1))

ELISP> (setq tooltip-frame-parameters (append '((background-color .
"lightyellow") (foreground-color . "black"))
tooltip-frame-parameters))
((background-color . "lightyellow")
 (foreground-color . "black")
 (name . "tooltip")
 (internal-border-width . 2)
 (border-width . 1))

;;; Show tooltip, then:

ELISP> tooltip-frame-parameters
((background-color . "systeminfowindow")
 (foreground-color . "systeminfotext")
 (name . "tooltip")
 (internal-border-width . 2)
 (border-width . 1))
