Fixing power button on Dell Latitude d620

[gjam30]

I have a Dell Latitude d620 that won't turn on. The culprit seems to be a broken power button. Specifically, it looks like the flexible circuit board underneath the button has a cut it in, and isn't completing the circuit. Also, the rubber button underneath that presses on the circuit board has fallen off.

Anyone know of a workaround? Or maybe a way to patch up the circuit board? I'd have no problems with replacing the part, but it seems to be hard to find. Are there any other Dells that use the same circuit board for the power button?

Thanks for the help.

seems though the power button is part of the keyboard assembly, replace the keyboard http/www.ebay.com.au/itm/Keyboard-for-Dell-Latitude-D620-D630-D631-D820-D830-UC172-/291163779678?hash=item43cab6b25e:g:JLgAAOSwYlJW3oza.

Should find a keyboard replacement anywhere worldwide
