Uh oh, sorry to hear that, I have seen people improvise and create new metal contact points using foil/metal, but I have not personally tried. There may be some youtube videos on it, I haven't checked.
I have the same problem but the batteries are fully imbedded in so Its so hard to remove do you have any tips to remove it I really dont want to lose this camera
It can also happen if you pack you camera in your suitcase when flying to another country because batteries don't Always like high altitude s and it can also damage all the electronics which can cost more than what the camera cost in the first place to have fixed a similar thing happened to me with a Konica compact camera years ago
If you experience any adverse reactions after handling leaking batteries, such as skin irritation, eye irritation, or if you suspect ingestion or inhalation of the leaked substances, seek medical attention immediately.
If the battery corrosion is really caked in there any the lock or button on the bottom of the camera doesn't allow the tray to be slide open, sometimes a flathead screwdriver can kind of pry it loose (if you've tried everything else). But that likely means that the corrosion is quite bad.
I have nikon coolpix l840 its the same as your issue and one of the battery prong inside is broken is there any fix for that?

Thanks! Can you post one on fixing a battery door that won't close anymore?
Had the same issue which popped the tiny engagement clips which keep the door closed, now using sticky tape ???

I have the same camera with the same issue however one of the prongs inside is corroded. Is this something I can fix? I’d hate to lose the camera
Possibly, you could try using a qtip with vinegar to clean the corrosion off. Often this process is clean, then test, clean more, then test, etc. etc.

Interesting way of repairing cameras. Has me wondering if it is a temporary fix or if it's permanent.
As long as the corrosion hasn't made its from the connectors to the board you should be fine. I've done the same repair a few times myself.
How did you get it open?

I can’t get batteries out..not enough clearance for pliers. Help!
