Sounds like you bent some pins in the rail, you might be able to bend them back as long as they aren't broken off. Your jig might be poorly made and is damaging the pins.
The rails don't cost too much to replace though.

I am guessing that you have joy-con as a jig. What FW are you on (6.x.x should have soft bricked it)?

It depends, when pin 10 is high the joycon still work via bluetooth, OP, if you've bridged pin 10 with 1/7/9 internally (with solder) remove the solder and solder a reed switch/a resistor instead.

You should be careful with those paperclip jigs, a lot of those can easily damage your pins. You probably already damaged your pins that's why it only detects bluetooth and not the joycon.
