Hardware: Y2P Broken Power Button

Love my Y2P. Had it for a year now. Take it to work everyday. Excellent.
While swinging it into my car and over the armrest from the driver's side door, I bashed it into th armrest. It hit the corner of the frame squarely over the power button. The frame is slightly bent over the spot, and now the power button is completely unresponsive. It sinks in but does not respond. It still lights up like it should. 
I can power-up (thank goodness) by using the recessed reset button just next to the power button. But I would love to find a way to replace the power button. I have looked at teardown instructions (Y2P Teardown)?
Wonder if the replacement part would be part of the motherboard or just a mechanical piece. Can't see from the pics.  
And if it is replaceable, how would I obtain the part?
Thoughts? Thanks.

  • MacBook frozen with broken power button

    i have a 2010 MacBook Pro that has a broken power button, which seems to be a common problem with this model. To turn it on, I have to open the case and short out two pins on the motherboard. Lately, my MacBook has been freezing on me, which leads to a solid black screen. I can move the mouse around but there is nothing to click on. Since my power button is broken, I cannot just hold it down to force a shutdown like usual and I do not have time to let the laptop's battery burn itself out all day so I can start it back up.
    Is there anything I can do to turn my Mac off while it's still running? I have the back case open and the fans are going. I'm afraid to poke around in there while it's running.
    Thanks.

    Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service.

    broken power button

    I sent in my iphone5 for a repair/replacement unit on november 9, 2013, I was having an issue with the power button "doesn't work at all". It has no dents or any other issues aside from the POWER BUTTON. The good thing about apple is that the customer is always updated as to what exact stage of your iphone is at. After 20days, I received a text message: I went to apple to get the replacement iphone5. The  POWER BUTTON issue is resolved but i noticed some other issue on the replacement unit. New ISSUES: Dents on the right side near the screen and it also has screen discoloration on the screen itself. It got worse! There might have been some other issue on the replacement unit if I had used it for a couple of hours. I am so disappointed about the service. I asked the manager to have it replaced but I need to wait for another 2 week to 1 month TAT turn around time. Apple would lose a lot of its loyal customers if they would not do anything about it for improvement of their service when it comes to replacing a defective unit.

  • Iphone cant restore- Broken power button

    Hi. My friend bought a factory unlocked iphone 3g from a friend here in norway which had a broken power button. he thought it would be ok without it until...
    IT GOT BRICKED!!!
    "Somehow" he bricked it and it doesnt want to turn on. i tried getting it into dfu mode/restore mode or whatever its called by holding down the home button while plugging it into itunes. it worked the first time but while it was downloading the new firmware, the cable got unplugged. we tried to get it to get recognised by itunes, but this time it didnt work. not sure where the original owner got it from, i think maybe from norway, but im not sure. can he repair it here in norway and how much would you expect the price to vary from (any currency ok)

    no

  • IPhone 2G restart loop/broken power button

    My original iphone has a broken power button.  Yesterday, out of nowhere, after taking calls, listen/watching podcasts, texting, etc, I get the restart loop.  I waited until the battery died so maybe I could get it restored if I sync it to itunes.  Didn't work.  itunes didn't recognize it and it charged up to looping again.  Any suggestions?  Is this a brick for good?  I preordered the 4S last week; jealousy maybe?

    Usally they will just give you a a brand new iphone 4 assunming you are still in a apple care plan? But i dont think they will give you a iphone 5 even at cost.

  • Broken power button on iMac G4

    I am considering the purchase of this iMac. It has a broken power button. What are the implications of this? The present owner says that he just plugs it in and it starts up, and that besides he just leaves it on all the time anyway. How big of an issue is this? Can you advise me on how easy a power button might be to repair or if it is very necessary to repair it (assuming their is a workaround-keyboard startup?).
    Thanks in advance!

    Given the said iMacG4 model and year are not discussed, one possibility
    may be to buy a third-party for Apple Macintosh keyboard with power key.
    If nothing else is wrong with the computer, it may run awhile without trouble;
    but access to the physical power key (on the logic board; may be hard to
    buy the part by itself to replace it) is handy in troubleshooting or restarting
    when something freezes up. Unplugging and re-plugging the iMacG4 to
    make it go/make it stop is not recommended. Issues can result; I am
    aware of a few problems in the G4 and earlier G3 iMacs and others, due
    to the owner unplugging the machine instead of performing maintenance
    or repairs in a timely and orderly fashion.
    Since that machine is likely no longer covered under an AppleCare Plan,
    you could either have someone else eventually replace the logic board
    or other parts as you find them; or if you are technically minded and have
    a good attention to detail with adequate work habits, fix it yourself. The
    service manual, a download in PDF for techs, may still be available. It
    was intended for trained personnel, and damages worse than the first
    problem may result from improper procedures being done inside the iMac.
    That said; good luck & happy computing!

    4) pug and restore your phone from backup

    I have an iPhone 3G with a bad Sleep/Wake switch. I just keep it charges and use the Home button to turn it on/wake it. I have it timed to go to sleep after 5 minutes. I use this in place of the Sleep/Wake button.

    Charge yours, open iTunes, hold the Home button down and plug the USB cord from computer into the iPod. If you're lucky and iTunes sees the iPod, restore it. Then try and use it like I use mine. Note: if it goes dead, I just recharge it--no need to restore again.

  • Reboot/restart ipod touch with broken power button

    I dont think my ipod touch is broken but it wont turn on, the power button has always been broken and it cant be repaired. Is there a program or something i can download to completelty restart my ipod, I dont care about my apps or anything. I just want it to work

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    Instead of using the puttons to place the iPod in recovery mode
    Place the iPod in recovery mode using one of these programs:
    For PC
    RecBoot: Easy Way to Put iPhone into Recovery Mode
    If necessary:
    Download QTMLClient.dll & iTunesMobileDevice.dll for RecBoot
    and                         
    RecBoot tip
    For MAC or PC       
    The Firmware Umbrella - TinyUmbrella
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Help, Broken Power Button- Can't turn on laptop

    Hi,
    I have an iBook G4 that does not turn on. The power button is unresponsive and doesn't do anything when pressed.
    I'm hoping there's a key combination I can press to boot it up? (one that doesn't involve pressing the power button)
    It's a school issued computer so I can't open it up, and since it's summer break I can't take it to our tech office.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    The Power Key is about it, for starting up an iBook.
    There may be something else wrong with the computer
    which an expert or genius may be able to perform a
    basic troubleshooting effort to find what that may be.
    Troubleshooting portables that won't turn on or start up:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TA25686
    Some processes to troubleshoot and try to get it to work
    may involve several different things; including seeing if
    the computer could work with the power adapter only,
    with the battery removed. Or see if the power adapter
    may be needed to start the computer. Narrowing down
    the possible sources of problems, to include inspection
    to see if the power button is broken, would be needed.
    If the battery is fully charged, and this implies the cell
    is good and not been used up, perhaps simply resetting
    the Power Management Unit (PMU) may help.
    Without seeing the computer, some things are more
    trial and error than others. If an Apple Store is within
    reasonable distance, a call ahead to see if they have
    an available genius or other person at a specific time
    who can look over your computer; this may be helpful.
    I suspect the issue may not be the Power Key; but
    if that is the case, it would require a repair. And if
    that happened to be the situation, someone at the
    school would have to authorize it (unless you were
    to be generous and send it off to someone capable
    such as wegenermedia.com for a quality repair.)
    Actually, if it's the Power key, a technician would have
    to take the computer apart down to the logic board...
    & a tech could decide how or what to do about it. In
    some cases, certain repairs may be costly.
    The instructions here are on how to perform a PMU reset:
