This is a clear design flaw. There are hundreds of similar incidents. Just try searching for "Coolpix L22 battery door" Nikon refused even to sell me a replacement door, and asked me to send the whole camera to them for evaluation. Dozens of sellers on ebay and ali-express are selling the replacement door, but not Nikon-USA. They do not sell it. So beware when working with Nikon that they do not stand behind their products.

I just purchased a new battery door for $15 with shipping from nikon. They sent a simple assembly diagram and I was able to replace the door in 30 minutes. I used a dremel to cut the old door off, but you dont have to do that. I got a little impatient.
Just buy the plastic piece and u can reuse the metal parts for your old battery door.

Call 3104148107 This is the Nikon Parts line, be warned it will probably take as long as 30-45 minutes of old time to get to a person.
Once you can get to a person, give them the camera model and describe the problem. They just sold me a replacement battery door for $9.95 + $6 dollars shipping and handling.
The rep was so nice he even printed out the device design blow up, and the relevant section of the manual, so I could see the step by step with out having to purchase the full blown repair manual, which runs $83.
SOURCE: I have a Nikon coolpix s550. The battery chamber
two things here could be causing the problem
1. the memory card is not completely inserted or is inserted in the wrong direction
2. the sam thing goes for the batteries too
and my suggestion take out the bateries and check to see if anything os obstructing the too from inside
cheers
pls rate the solution
