Memory Cards not reading

Sorry if this has been answered already but i can't find a solution.

The other day i went to switch memory cards and now my D3200 won't read any cards. I keep getting the message about the card might be damaged and to use another card. They're all formatted and i even went as far as long format via computer. I decided to buy another one of the recommended cards and i got the same thing. i've read that i should get a duster and clean out the memory slot but that didnt work either. While looking in the slot, nothing seems to be out of place or bent. I cannot format in the camera because the camera won't accept the card. so therefore it won't let me do anything with the camera besides looking at the error message. thanks in advance

Welcome!

Hopefully some one will be along shortly that may have a suggestion. I was going to say the card should be formatted in your camera, but that doesn't help if it won't read the card.

i decided to take apart the camera! (crazy i know) but idk why or idk how but it fixed the issue. I opened up the camera and unplugged/unlatched all connections. put it back together and it worked! i'm glad it works but i really wanna know what the cause is. I'm glad to have found this forum and look forward to learning from you all!
