From what I can tell, something may be in the port and blocking the spring from engaging. Try to see if anything is stuck inside it. If there is, there's a good question similar to yours about getting something out of the port [post|744361|here].

If you are entirely sure that nothing else is in the port and the spring may be bad or that something else is hidden, this will be a little more difficult. Unfortunately, the SD card port is soldered onto the motherboard on the screen side. This makes it harder to reach. Thankfully, though, there's a good guide on how to get to the motherboard [post|744361|here]. I will warn you, though, it would take some time, effort, and will also void your warranty. ***Please, take out your SD card if it is in the port ''before'' you open your Steam Deck.***

As for what you would do once you get to the port, try looking for anything that could be blocking the way in the port. If you can find it, remove it carefully. If you can find anything, try checking to see if the spring is in the correct place or not.
