In taking back off jiggling SD card trying to remove it the green power light came on and it now works. Very bizarre however if anyone can tell me how to unmount SD card for future that would be fab

Unlike the external card, the card is only held in by friction. To remove it, you just pull it out.

And because of that, it isn't that surprising that reseating the card got it working. Dropping it or bumping it the right/wrong way could easily unseat the card. And there has been at least one other report of reseating the card fixing things.

Directions are as shown in picture.
To left of battery and even with black battery bottom I see uSD card thick bottom ridge below metal retainer. Hook finger nail above ridge and pull it out towards bottom of picture.
Spray cantact cleaner on uSD card contacts then inserting and removing uSD card a few times should clean contacts and delay it happening again.
