Default Instrument cluster button problem

I have recently discovered that my instrument cluster buttons no longer function. I know that they used to about a month ago. I cannot reset my clock or my trip meter. The speedo, odometer, and all the lights (including oil and FI) still work. Anyone have any input on this problem? It would be appreciated, hopefully this isn't a repost.

Thanks in advance.

kymoonshiner was exactly right! Two loose pieces, and super easy to figure out.... ONLY I can't figure out how to make them stay now. I am thinking glue, but I would have to be really careful to not glue the button up. Any additional advice would be great!

mine stayed when i put them back just lay ti face down on a soft surface and put it back together, starting by face up there are some plastic "guide rails" to the buttons, but if thats not working i would recomend a hot glue gun, it peels off fairly easy if you want it to, without residue, but if you gluearound it real god it will stay.
