Click Wheel Falling Out the Front

I recently upgraded and did some refurbishing to my Ipod classic. Unfortunately the click wheel has lifted up from the board and falls through the front of the case. I'm not sure what really kept it stuck to the board in the first place but I'm looking for a solution.

Is this a good question?

@ggoerl what keeps it in place are the four little tabs on the clickwheel.

Replace the clickwheel with a new one. Here is the guide for that. Make sure it is for a Classic if your iPod is a Classic. A lot of times people describe the 5th gen a Classic which it is not. Replacement parts are available right here
