My SIM reader has been damaged due to a foreign particle getting in, and removing this foreign particle has caused one of the SIM reader’s pins to be damaged. In the hope of making this device being able to read the SIM again, how hard is it to do this repair, and is there a guide I missed looking at? Thank you for reading.

You’ll need to either have Apple replace your logic board or find someone that has the deep skills to fix your phone.
