Hi Sean, try dismantling the keyboard, there is a lvds cable which is connected to the mainboard. Disconnect it and clean up your keyboard.

Also use an eraser to rub on the LVDS cable connector of the keyboard.

If all fails, consider getting a replacement keyboard module from ebay.

Answering due to poor answer quality

These Lats have a keyboard that comes out from the top with 2-3 screws after removing the keyboard volume control cover. Once you remove it, slide it out and it comes right out. More often then not, the keyboard is bad. However, reseating it can help on this series.

If the issue is still there, it needs a new keyboard. Sometimes cleaning helps, but with Dell, it's usually a bad matrix.

Dirt or debris may have gotten under individual keys, which makes them not make good contact. Individual keys can be carefully pried up and then cleaned manually or with a can of compressed air. This usually solves the problem for me.
