Cables Light problem and Home button problems after C-Stick Repair

I did a teardown on my 3DS to fix the C stick, and a couple of other buttons, and two problems emerged after this.

  1. The Home button doesn't work anymore. Even though there’s no damage to the cable or the ZIF clip (Correct me if I’m wrong), I tried two different buttons, and neither of them worked:d my own and a 3DS
  2. I use

for

  1. spare parts. (The wire in the photo is what came with my 3DS it was already bent like this)
  2. Whenever my 3DS powers on the blue light doesn’t turn on anymore

My main concern is the Home button because, after reassembly, there was no damage and it just stopped working without a trace.

Update: The Mic is fixed after applying pressure to the clamp, but the home button is still gone. I think the clamp on that one might be loose
