Your best bet is probably to ask the manufacturer but AFAIK, they don't sell keys individually but googling it will never hurt

My mother-in-law is having the same problem with her laptop, we did remote assistance and the right half of her keyboard is typing numbers where there should be letters. Anyone know how to fix it?

URGENT HELP NEEDED<Toshiba Satellite M70 Keyboard Overlay Problem>
Hi All
Seems many fellow users have been crippled with the same keyboard problem .To touch on that again, I have toshiba Satellite M70 notebook. The right half of the keyboard has gone crazy.it has started behaving like the numeric keypad as we have on a conventional desktop keyboard.Ok agreed toshiba provides you with this Hot Key functionality to switch to numeric overlay keypad(Toggle switch Fn+F10 for arrows; Toggle switch Fn+F11 for numeric keypad and Fn+F12 for Scroll lock), but here the problem is despite toggling several times this problem refuses to go.I tried even interferes with the left half of the keyboard(symptoms: keypad stroke won't produce a character in a single hit, it will take some 7-8 hits in some keys;Spacebar zooms the screen.This additional hot key functionality has become a nightmare for me.I am left with no option than to use Onscreen Keyboard.SOMEBODY OUT THERE PLEASE HELP ME.Any fellow toshiba user or any person from the toshiba laptops firm itself ..URGENT HELP NEEDED

I have no answer but I have the same problem - this time on a Satellite A40. The F10 light flashes as the computer boots (in time with the HDD activity light) and then I get random switching on and off of F10 and F11 functions; spacebar zooms the screen etc.
