Replaced Game Card Reader and Still Not Reading Cards

I started getting the "game card could not be read" error and replaced card reader. Still having the same issue. All connections seem to be properly connected. I've tried multiple cards just to be sure it wasn't an issue with the game. I would love to hear any ideas on what else I might consider looking at to trouble shoot further.

Thanks

I've seen this happen many times, especially with the Switch Lite. With the back metal cover removed, gently press down on the clip area where the game card slot connects. Then insert a game and see if the system recognizes it.

Hi! Just to add:

Try to clean the game card reader with isopropyl alcohol as well. If both failed, then please replace the game card reader! You can follow this guide: Nintendo Switch Lite Motherboard Replacement (till step 16) remove the heatsink and then the game card reader! If you need a more specific guide, please let us know!
