joystick and contact button do not work

hi at all
since yesterday my axim x51v with new wm 6.1 worked very well
today the joystick , the scroll button and the contact don't work. the 3 remain button yes.
Could be something bad in the flexible cable? the buttons phisically seem to work
Thanks for your help in advance

You might want to boot into diagnostic mode to test the buttons.

Steps:
1. Turn off your Axim fully
2. Press the "record button" and the power button simultaneously
3. While holding the two buttons, press the reset hole with your stylus
4. While holding the two buttons, release the reset hole
5. Wait for the diagnostic screen to pop up
6. Release the "record button" and the power button

Your connector might have come undone from the motherboard, it's happened to me a couple of times, if diagnostic mode doesnt work you might consider taking it apart to seat the connector on the motherboard.
