Greetings,
Repeat the repair. Just because you fixed the bad solder joints doesn't mean that the original cause doesn't still exist (circuit board too thin, and vibration along wiring harness causing stress on the socket). However, you could also have additional solder joints that you didn't fix the first time go bad so another shot with a soldering gun and some extra solder should work again.
The recall kits have a thicker circuit board to prevent the solder joints from failing and a redesigned cover to make up for the additional thickness.

I come across the same problem from time to time. Its in the turn signal level switch, bad contact. Futs with and you'll see it stop.
Cheers
