Broken clip on batterycover

there is a wire rod from the handle to the door lock that is held in the lock by a small plastic clip. These clips break and the rod falls out. Repair is to remove the door trim put the rod back in using a new clip.

I am guessing that the plastic bit is what holds the wire /rod in the hole of the lock lever It is a common connection piece in lock manufacture. If that is the case the piece that breaks is the bit that clips around the rod section(the clip fingers break off). Two fixes spring to mind is to use a piece of small wire (paper clip ) reposition the clip and tie to rod ( small zip tie may be easier) or 2 there are metal clips that do the same job( Mazda early models use these) but you could possible get them from a panel repair shop

Please check the link below and find the shop close to your place.
Also if the door has broken on the plastic side , you can use instant glue to bond after cleaning the surface and keeping the joints under pressure. Also you can wedge some steel ribs into the plastic to reinforce and glue on top, use soldering iron to heat the steel leads.

KODAK doesn't sell battery doors for any of their models.
A repair for this fault is 24,47 pounds + shipping to the repair centre.
If you already have the battery door; I suggest you will have a local camera TECH to attach the door to the unit.

Unfortunately HP will not sell you a camera battery door. If you can find another camera that is broken with a good battery door you may have a chance.

To repair/transfer the new battery door, you will have to use a small jewerly store screw driver that you can buy at the dollar store and use it to push the door hinge bar to one side of the camera.

Then, pull the door hinge out but be careful not to lose the tiny spring that is installed in between the hinges. ( Make sure that you know and understand how to put it back the same way.) You can then pull the battery door from the camera.

Do the same thing to good camera. Practice on the broken camera first. The second time it should go easier for you. When you install the new battery door, push the hinge bar in all the way to one side of the camera. Hold the door to give you the proper alignment and then use the small screw driver to pry the hindge bar from the one side to make sure that it is equally in each of the black hinge connectors.

This worked for me. I was fortunate enough to find someone who had a broken HP MZ67 digital camera that had a "good" battery door. It took me about 30 minutes to complete the job. I hope this will help you. You can email me if you need more advice. I am a computer tech.

You can get inside door handle either new or used from sellers on ebay. It should be just a few dollars plus shipping. Just search ebay for "Inside door handle 1991 Toyota Corolla."
