Ok, so the
CNTRL key behaviour analysis is a good point
to start with.
Well, it's a definite fault. I would guess the firmware is
doing the wrong thing (I can't see how a hardware fault in
the keyboard or display could do this).
But I will first inspect the two RAM chips!
What are the RAMs? From the description, they sound like the
little TTL RAMs that DEC also used for register storage on
some of the '11 CPUs

If my eyes read it correct, the RAMs are DEC 85S68. A Google
search shows that it was made by National Semiconductor and
that it is a 64-bit static RAM. My eyes are still good :-)
I did not find a datasheet, unless you order and pay for it!
The schematic is clear enough to figure things out ...
