Has it ever happened to any of you that the central button (select) after having disassemble an ipod classic to replace some part no longer works?
Yes. In that case it seemed to be a problem with the clickwheel. Don't know how that worked, as the button is obviously physically part of the logic board, not the clickwheel, but that particular third-party-replacement clickwheel would make the centre-button stop working when installed. With a different clickwheel it worked again.
I assume there are many other possible reasons why that might happen, including physical damage to the centre button microswitch, but if the clickwheel was what you just replaced, it might be worth trying a different one.
