I thought about that but it will do it if you touch ANYWHERE on the faceplate. I’m baffled at this point.

I've had decks that do this, and it's most likely a bad solder connection or cracked circuit within the face plate.
What I bet is happening is when you press a button, it's putting pressure on the bad joint causing it to lose it's continuity in the circuit, causing it to shut off.

That's just my guess though.
