How to replace hearing aid housing

Would you be able to help me with how to remove the casing? I’ve got tools small enough to remove the pins, however I’m wary of damaging anything. I’ve managed to pop the bottom pin out, but the one near the receiver seems alot tighter, which I’m afraid to use too much force with.

Any tips?

Any advice appreciated!
Thanks

  1. What hearing aid?
  2. What are you using for a tool? Sometimes pin pushing requires a firm pressure. But firm pressure can be two different things. For example, using a pin tool with a handle, and using a flattened needle with no handle.
  3. How is your eyesight? In other words make sure you are pushing on a pin and not a microphone hole. Sorry if this statement seems too critical. It is not my meaning to be critical.

You should post a picture of the hearing aid. A closeup cellphone picture works, and you can upload it using the ^-Up Arrow on a forum post.
