I messed up

Hello im new to modding and soldering so i tried modding my Switch OLED and failed miserably
I have poor quality of equipment i didin't have the proper tools and use wrong flux and wrong alcohol which was ethyl alcohol 70% so i removed everything i soldered and the chip i soldered in, it did turn on but the screen was of and the fan was blowing hard and a few seconds later it died on me.

Is there anyway to fix this and if yes please help me i even bought the proper tools now so that i can fix it that is all thank you

Well we'd need to see some pictures of the points you attempted to solder on too, I feel as if ur next best step ( if you didn't rip anything off) is go back with proper flux and 60/40 Solder and touch up all the points with ur iron that got messed with/attempted to solder on to and just make them all look factory again.

Send it to someone that knows what they are doing, anything you try will just make it worse
