K800i possible water damage

I have my k800i since a long time, and never i had a problem, since today.
I went to a party, suddenly some keys of the keyboard stopt working :
- right key
- activity menu key
- "#" key
- volume down key
I tried pressing hard, no result.
I opened the phone, reconnected the keyboard connecter, same problem.
I flashed the phone serveral times, same problem. :confused:
I tried to remote control the phone with myphoneexplorer, that worked.
So what i think : possible water damage at serveral keys.
What should i do ?
Please answer asap.
Thanks;:)

It should be that,as you can control it via MPE...However,I suggest you not bring it to a service point,as they will tell you that you are not under warranty and you will pay too much...You should order a keyboard from Ebay as they are so cheap if you order from there...

Im sorry
I said wrong.
I ment to say : How can i control that is is a keyboard problem, because the volume keys are not connected to the keyboard connecter, are they ?
And volume down key is also not working ..

I just found out that joystick up and joystick right is also not working,
and that is defenitly not linked to the keyboard is it ?
