T1i Canon-How to replace Canon 500D internal clock battery ou hard reset; 500D is not like 400D and battery is non accesible? In automatic like new but no access to manual control. Thanks

They say the battery isn’t accessible but in fact that is incorrect. remove the main battery from the camera, then look in the slot the battery goes and you should see a little box thats been cut out but not fully, use a screwdriver to snap this lil tab out ( don’t worry won’t cause any harm ) and theres the little clock / date battery. next you will need a pick tool or something thin and pointy to remove the battery from its holder. to reinsert the battery is as simple as placing battery over the battery holder and push down and your all done.

Hi, My Rebel T1 / 500D / Kiss X3 is suddenly dead (after a blue light flashing near the WB button until I removed the main Battery). I’ve tried everything: change the main Battery, the SD Card, change and remove the optic, removed the main battery for a whole night, but nothing change, no power at all… Do you think a dead button battery could cause this issue, or is it simply an electronic issue? If anyone has a clue, I will grateful : ) Thierry
