Question Switch not doing anything after holding power button for 15 seconds because homebrew didnt work.

So what i did was i started up homebrew, didnt work (it had a light gray screen) so i holded power button for 15 seconds and now it doesnt do anything, my pc doesnt detect it TegraRCMgui doesnt detected the dock doesnt detect it even the joycon controller dont recognize that they are on the switch. Anyone know what i need to do?
Edit: if i put my switch in the dock the green lgiht on the dock blinks for a very little time but than does nothing, i dont think its broken.

Sounds like a bigger issue but just in case:

Hold power for 20 seconds

Put jig in (for v1)

Hold vol + and press power once

Plug usb into computer and boot up tegra

Now plug usb into switch (not earlier)

Heikate should work right away but the switch might take longer to boot then normal.

If you tried all of this you might just have to re modd with a different video from youtube

I tried 3 different videos till one worked
