Compatibility
Fits the Nintendo Switch Lite (model HDH-001). It does not fit the standard Nintendo Switch (HAC-001) or Switch OLED (HEG-001), which use different card readers. The model number is on the back of the console.
Before you replace the reader
Try more than one game card and gently clean the card contacts. If no cards read, or pins in the slot are bent, the reader needs replacing. On the Switch Lite the card reader is soldered to the main board, so fitting needs hot air and soldering experience.

Frequently asked questions
Will this fit a standard Nintendo Switch?
No. It is for the Switch Lite only.
Why will my Switch Lite not read game cards?
Bent pins, dirt or a worn slot are the usual causes. A new reader fixes slot faults.
Is it a DIY repair?
Professional installation is recommended. Screens and small parts are delicate, so we recommend having this part fitted by a qualified repair technician. Damage caused during fitting is not a product fault.
How soon will it be dispatched?
The same day for orders placed before 4pm, Monday to Friday.
