This takes a bit of explaining:
I ran Android on my Switch, and ever since then I've had SD card issues. Thought it was the card until I tried a new one, and same issues occurred (not being able to read games, getting "microSD card has been removed, etc.).
I then thought that running Android had burnt something in my SD reader (whilst overclocking, I might add. You'll find both here and later in this post that I'm not the brightest
). Naturally I ordered a new reader, disassembled my Switch, took out the old, and put in the new. Nevertheless I found, much to my disappointment, that the exact same problem was occurring, except it was even worse! I couldn't even turn the Switch on (booting into atmosphere from SD card, SD card couldn't be read, you can guess the rest).
After a bit more experimenting, I discovered one of the pins from the SD connector on the motherboard was missing. I looked over, and there it was sitting in one of the SD readers I was using (perhaps I was too rough with it, or the new reader was cheap and had knocked it loose, which would explain why the second I put it in it made everything worse).
TL;DR
The actual problem was discovered: the connector on the motherboard had been faulty the entire time, and so we come to the question.
Where on earth can I find a replacement part, and how do I remove the old one and attach it?
