When the power button stops working on the nano, ( the actual problem is 1 of 2 possible things)
1.) there is a tiny little black rubber dot that sits in the dead center the round yellow contact. If it falls off or slides over it will effect the power buttons functionality anywhere from; you have to push hard, but it still works after 4-5 tries. To not responding at all.
2.) the other possibility is on the back of the metal part of the power button there is a tiny round metal disc , if this disc that is just a bit thicker than the back of the power switch, falls off there will be to much space between the contact & the power button itself to work.
Also, when replacing these parts adjusting the tightness of the 4 screws that hold the assembly against the power button can make all the difference in the world as to how it functions. These parts are barley thicker than a human hair or two, so, be aware that you are dealing with micro distances between the contact and the power button.

As for a fix, i haven't heard of a really good repair tip, i pull one of the black dots off of an old spare flex cable from another project i worked on .
