They become corrupt from turning it on/off with the psu too many times.  It's hard on the sd card file system just like your computer which offers the shutdown via the OS.

For some reason, my Antminer S4 card became corrupt. I went out and bought a new SD Card, but I am unsure of how to put the firmware on the card. Any help would be awesome thank you!

You will need a copy of the S4 image.  If you use a program like win32diskimager you can burn it to the new SD.

There should be a few images in S4 thread that are backup.  You need backup not firmware image.
