There's a ribbon underneath that can easily get slightly loose. Toshiba has local service centers with live people in many areas and this would be like a 30 second no-cost fix.
If you can remove the keyboard (not all the way!) look underneath at the ribbon and simply press lightly downward (straight!) on the ribbon and the clip retaining the ribbon on the motherboard. Be careful that all screws are tight, but be more careful to not overtighten screws going into plastic!
