Radio on/off button

It’s always been a bit iffy but now it has come off and will not go back on. It doesn’t look snapped to my eyes? Does anybody have a fix for this problem? I can turn the radio on/off with a pencil but not ideal!

Try one turn of plumbers PTFE tape around the outside of the metal central part of the knob and trim off all the surplus tape. Carefully try to refit the knob into the stereo a little at a time. hopefully it will go back on and work correctly. If it is the on / off button do not push it on too far as it needs to be able to move in to operate.

If that does not fix it then you may be looking to at least replace the front panel if not the whole stereo.

I’ll give this a try tomorrow thank you 🤞🏻
