I couldn't point you to any particular ic that could be causing the problem , you also need to be careful working on these type of boards as the traces are thin and can be delicate.

i have removed the board,and found this has been repaired before.not by me.looks reasonably tidy but they didnt remove flux so you can see what has been done.
