The ribbon cable that connects the buttons to the motherboard is REALLY finicky. There is basically no retention mechanism, so you have to line up the ribbon on the contacts and screw everyone back together. I'm not even sure it's actually a ribbon cable or if it is, it's a really old style. I had to take it apart and put it back together again a bunch of times.
