[Elecraft] K2 intermittend key failure

After solving the 40/80m KPA100 overdrive problem with the help and good 
advice of Don Wilhelm I come back with a new one:
This weekend I had a intermittend key failure of the menu key and the PF2 
key on my K2.  All other keys worked.
Switch on / off did not help, but a little clap (like the claps I got as a naughty 
child) on top of the K2 immediately turned things to normal. 
I suspect a bad soldering somewhere on the display unit. If the failure comes 
back, where should I start to look / resolder? I think it is not the key itself, but 
elsewhere...
