Pachi TKL pcb not register key

Hi, I just go into the problem with the pcb lately while uninstalling for new build. When I was trying to plug the switches in (usb-c unplug), I found out I bent a switch pin. I tried to unbend the pin and plug the usb-c to try the switch again. Suddenly my pcb not recognize by VIA and my previous setting was gone, all the lighting start to flash on default mode. I searched for the help in Geon Notion and found the flashing qmk method. I tried that out then the RGB lighting started to stop and the keys are not register even I tried with multiple device and re flash it with new qmk .bin file. How can make the pcb work again?

This appears to be physical damage to the socket due to misalignment of the switch. Check the underside of the PCB for any damage to the copper foil or circuit pattern. Judging from the phenomenon you explained, it may be that the pcb died due to short. If damage is identified, try soldering.
