My arduino died randomly while I was working, now only my green on light stays on faintly when plugged in, does anyone know how to solve this or is it a lost cause?

Also look for a short circuit between VCC and GND pins or ever reverse polarity between VCC and GND.
Before my arduino went down i was tweaking my dual h-bridge circuit on a bread board(arduino wasn't plugged in at this time), then I connected my vcc and gnd to the board and then connected my computer to upload my code, when i uploaded my code the orange arduino lights went off and the green 'on' light dimmed significantly.
