Anyone ever replaced the micro sd card reader on a Switch? It's a push to eject one I think but it was brought to me showing an error saying the card had been ejected blah. I took it out, cleaned and checked card and it seemed ok but putting it back in and it felt sticky and didn't click into place. It sort of oozed back out. It still showed as reading but soon disconnected again. I've looked online and seems relatively straightforward - ifixit sell a kit for example. But just clarifying if that includes the push to eject mechanism or if the bit that actually reads the card is separate?
That is just a microsd socket - clicky in and clicky out - on a little daughter card pcb, entirely electromechanical, the actual card reading is done elsewhere. It sounds like what you need if the card no longer clicks in and out properly on yours.
Thanks. Sounds about right. Mine currently feels like overusing a track pump. It goes in but with resistance and then just slides back out. Will give that a whirl.
