1) Use score context for setting the pedal style
2) I would just put both fingerings in the first voice

Here's what I did with your score.  There were a lot of extraneous
things that I took out.

\version "2.22.2"

rightHand = {
  <<
  {
    % Put both fingerings here
    a'4-1-4 b' c'' dis''
  }
  \\
  {
    e'2
  }
  >>
}

leftHand = {
  \clef bass
  d2 c2 |
}

pedal = {
  % I wasn't sure what you wanted here
  s4\sustainOn s\sustainOff s\sustainOn s\sustainOff
}

\score {

  \new PianoStaff <<
    \new Staff = "rightHand" \rightHand
    \new Staff = "leftHand"  {  \leftHand  }
    % Set pedal style to score context
    \new Dynamics  { \set Score.pedalSustainStyle = #'bracket \pedal }
  >>

}
