Default Audio control buttons on center console stopped working

Have an '07 ES350 non-ML audio system with navi. When out to the car today and found out the radio turned on when the car started but most of the audio control buttons on the center console no longer work. They worked fine the previous day. Here is a brief list of what does and does not work.

Power/volume ****: pushing it in to turn the radio on/off no longer work but rotating it does increase/decrease the volume

Tune/file ****: works fine

All other audio control buttons on the center dash for cd/am/fm/track control no longer work.

Sound from the speakers is fine.

The mode selector on the wheel works fine.

Navigation works fine.

As it is now, I am unable to turn the radio off since the power **** only responds to volume control. I am able to switch between radio and cd using the mode button on the wheel and the sound is fine. Could this be a fuse issue perhaps?

Nothing as simple as a fuse I'm afraid. Yours is a fully integrated unit. Audio, cd and GPS so you can't replace part of it. Your choices are 1) get a price for repair or OEM replacement (used would be less $$) 2) replace with an aftermarket unit. The new aftermarket units will be a huge improvement over the factory system. I recently went to an audio shop and was given a price of $800 for a really nice all in one replacement including a new backup camera. Good luck

maybe you can figure something from the att wiring diagram. i had a problem with the on off button once and the service guy just pulled the button off and reinserted it but i had none of your other symptoms. Maybe a loose pin connector?
