Hey all,

On the last hurdle of my build, where I have hooked everything up and it does not work.

I reverted a step back to before I wired up the cartridge reader to the pi and it all works fine then - so it must be the reader. Don't have any helpful pictures, but guess I'm just wondering if anyone else came across a similar issue that may help me out.

Thank you so much!!

This issue has been covered hundreds of times. Using an external sd card reader is very tricky as magnetic interferences can prevent readings, even too long cables can lead to broken sd reader.
