Hi,
These also have the "170" number so may be of similar design.

I've got good service from these, even abusing them. If your a Prime
member or get to the free shipping level at $4.37 these are almost throw
away's. Surprisingly they are made in Italy not China.

You have a K2 with the new encoder board. If the leads on that encoder board
and the area of the Control board directly behind it are not flush trimmed
(really, really flush trimmed), the two will make contact and 'strange things
will happen'. Yes, the tools list does not include flush trimmers, but you
will need them.
Inexpensive flush trimmers can often be found in the electrical tools
department of your local DIY store (at least here in the US Home Depot carries
them) - look for Xcelite (or Lufkin or Cooper) 170M - it may be packaged with
a pair of small needlenose pliers.
Try putting some insulator between the encoder board and the control board to
test and see if that cures the fault condition. There is not much clearance
and you may not be able to put the screws in the control board while doing
that test.
