Game card slot not working

Ok so I've tried almost everything from putting paper under the game card slot to replacing the card slot.

I tried different games cleaning the games and any software issues that I thought of.

The only two things I can think of is the tiny bit of of blue green corrosion by where the game card connects to the motherboard.

The sd card also is not reading. Please help

Yes I do have pictures sorry if quality is bad

Hi!

Probably caused by corrosion. You need to clean everything on there with isopropyl alcohol and remove all the corrosion before you proceed.

In the worst case you need to replace the motherboard.

Can you please share some pictures regarding the corrosion?

Thanks for the pictures! That is definitely corrosion yes. You need to clean it all with isopropyl alcohol and with a toothbrush. Clean it really good and it should come off. Can you let us know how that goes? Thanks!
