iPod Classic Play Button Broken

The play button of my 160gig 7th Generation iPod Classic was not working anymore.

After following the replacement guide for the clickwheel, it still doesnt.

I think the microswitch is broken. https://d3nevzfk7ii3be.cloudfront.net/ig...

The lower one of those four.

Where can i get a replacement part for the button? I would probably be able to solder it on there i think. The logic board is 100$ unfortunately :(

Answer this question I have this problem too

Is this a good question?

Rick Scott, those are very difficult to find. I'd suggest to buy a broken logic board from place like ebay and harvest the switch.
