If I understand your question correctly, the tuner (the little machine that the string winds around so that you can- yep! you guessed it- tune the string.) has come loose/is coming loose from the guitar. Or someone offered to "fix it" and lost a screw.
Either way, you can do one of two things: look on a website called StewMac.com. the Stewart McDonald company has been doing this since 1968, so they'll probably have the part.
If, however, you want a little faster response: Get your guitar and find a music store that's been around awhile- a long while. Go inside, be careful not to knock anything over (because the light will be dim, and there will be stuff stacked and displayed *everywhere*. Walk to the back of the store (past the tatted salesmen and the harassed-looking girl who's answering the phone) to the repair counter. Ask the guy for the screws that you need- he may recommend that a larger size is needed if the hole has been stripped.
Either way, you'll have the hardware you need- probably for about a buck or two.
Keep playing!

This will help you tune your gtr. Tuners have 3 lights 2 red and 1 green. Green is in the middle of the 2 lights. You may all so have a meeter with a number calibration. Dead center of the meeter is the # 440. 440 is what is what is called standard pitch When you tune up start with the 6 string low E. the biggest string A 5th ,D 4th G 3rd B 2nd E 1ft. Looking at the red lights when the lite on the left is red you string is flat adj. by tightening . To much and the right lite glows , your sharp, back off the tention untill the green lite glows and the meeter nedal is at 440. . Thats is what you want 440 and green. Do this to the rest and you will be at standard pitch. Good luck, keep on rockin in the free world DFD please rate me TKU
