The wifi card on that laptop should look like this:
But I do not know to get @ it on that mod, it could have it's own small access hatch to open underneath like mine (with the memory RAM chips).
Or it could even be under the keyboard, but the above picture is what your looking for m8.
When you find it you can as you say, check it's seated properly, if it is & still not showing, then I would be tempted to go back to an earlier restore point, just before you noticed it was not working, that normally sorts it.
Have a look in (control panel's Divice manager) to see if the wifi card is showing & check if it has got a red or yellow "exclamation mark" next to it.
