Hi, I was trying out my ESP8266 board when suddenly it stopped working.
The lights suddenly went off and would not blink when I reconnect the board to my laptop. When I reconnect it to my laptop, there will be a notification sound and the device manager will detect it (Silicon Labs CP210x USB to UART Bridge(COM 4)) but there's still no lights. Arduino is able to detect the board when I connect or disconnect it ( it shows NodeMCU 1.0... on COM4), and when I try to upload something "A fatal esptool.py error occurred: Failed to connect to ESP8266: Timed out waiting for packet header" this error shows up. I tried connecting my sensor to the board and the LED which lit up before when connecting to Vcc and GND did not light up.
Did I broke the ESP8266?
Thanks in advance
