Looking for some help on identifying areas on the motherboard to check if the SD Card reader isn't reading after testing with 2 known to work SD card readers. Are there any particular areas of the board that should be checked for shorts? Any common faults here?
Hardware Which Areas Should be Checked if SD card reader not reading?

SD is going to report directly to GPU looking at the board layout. Likely takes 3.3v in from the PMIC on those capacitors above the connector. This would seem to indicate a problem with the connector, possibly a missing/failed component above? I've seen tons of knocked off resistors on game card connectors, could happen here.
For the SD card adapter on the motherboard you can check this thread for reference which point to solder if you if the SD module to the SD card flex isn't working.

It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem. -

the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze -

but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in

There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.

But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".

Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.

Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need -
