Why is my SD card reader is not showing up in Disk Utility?

I am new to the MacBook world, with the MacBook Air with M1 chip. I've purchased the USB adapter from Apple. when I plug in the card & card reader to the MacBook it does not recognised it being there, so I cannot format the disk to be able to return it to my cars dash-cam. Can anyone offer any advice please?



MacBook Air (2020 or later)

If you’ve not already tried this, maybe the Show All Devices in Disk Utility?
