Ok it worked for me
I had to short the gnd of the reader to gnd of the switch though
Why did you have to do this exactly? My connector on the main board completely came off, I'm looking to try and just solder it directly now to the reader instead of solder the connector back on. It's not broken, it just became seperated which I think was the issue in the first place.

i dont think you even need ground pin replaced becuase that connector has like 4 grounds.

I’ve just done this repair on mine this evening, it all went fine. Wanted to get the connector replaced properly but no cash after Christmas, at least this will be solid until I can afford to get it done properly.

I chopped the ribbon off on the SD reader in about the same spot Tommy did further above and did the same soldering to the ribbon below the cap.

I found that the red connection to the cap is already there even with the ribbon cut off so you can ignore that part basically.
