Is the plate for the battery contact? If so, that should be an easy fix with a soldering iron.
yeah exactly, i dont think that 'S the problem but i think the tape doorholder will be much more difficult to fix, i try tomorrow with my dad and will let u know about...
If you broke the tape door, I presume you still have all the bits. In that case, DO NOT USE SUPERGLUE or anything like that. The ONLY thing strong enough for a repair like this is not glue, but acrylic solvent to "weld" the pieces back together.
I posted a thread way back, you'll need to find it yourself, about how to do it.

No Holly. Acrylic solvent actually "melts" the plastic. Once evaporated, the plastic bits will be chemically "welded" back together and should be about as strong as before the break. There is no fillers or anything like that. The solvent disappears after doing it's job. The repair basically involves the 2 pieces melding back together.
Epoxy, on the other hand, is a filler and strong but requires and relies on a fillet for strength but keep in mind that resin won't flex at the same rate as the original virgin plastic and this discrepency will cause the repair to break again if the parts are flexed. Oh, and resin isn't really strong at all.

That stuff is just right for you!
It fixed the Power switch of my vz2000 perfectly!
Trust me...you can fix it without opening the box.
