Hello - I cannot seem to find any instructions online for how to replace the battery door cover for my Canon 580exii. I had batteries corrode and ruin the receptors on the cover. I have a new cover but I’m not sure how to access the pin to release the old cover. Do I need to open the entire unit up?

Hi, Here is a link to the relevant section in the service manual for your Canon 580EXII. It shows an exploded view of the the Battery case Assembly - Disassembly. On the next page (click the next link page on the bottom of the page) it has illustrations which may help you. https://www.manualslib.com/manual/379083
