Update your CFW files.

A bricked switch doesnt block you enter in rcm. Have you tried hold the power for 20s?

Well charge your switch, if it is on autorcm, you don't need a jig, if it isn't then you need a jig. Let it charge a bit and then try to see if it boot.

Got it to switch on I guess the problem is I select the firmware with out expat and my sd is exfat
Should I just update it again and select exfat ?

You can do the update again via ChoidujourNX, but it is not recommended to use exFAT, it is recommended to use FAT32 instead, and learn to do usb install and you should be good.

Exfat is more corruption prone, that why people on the forum recommends FAT32.

Yeah I just downgraded Sysnand (banned) to 8.1.0 from 9.0 after accidentally updating and it went smooth with exfat 8.1.0 now I have one sd 8.1.0 emunand sxos + atmosphere (for edizon use) and one SD for primarily 8.1.0 emunand sxos . **unpatched system with tx chip inside**

My games used to corrupt all the time because I would use Retroarch heaps. I swapped to FAT32 and never had a problem since. Maybe you are lucky or you don't use homebrew much

Same. Lost my Crisis Core saves due to corruption on Exfat. Switched to FAT32 and played a 26-hour Chrono Trigger playthough np.

I assume you're talking about converting to fat32

1. copy all data off the sd card to pc
2. format sd card as NTFS
3. download http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/guiformat.exe and open
4. make sure it has the drive letter of your sd card and click format
5. copy all data back to sd card

done
