    @naveen Did you check the 5v with a multimeter?
    I have an identical breadboard supply and fried mine with a "12v" adapter. After measuring the output of the adapter it appeared to be around 16v and the onboard voltage converter (ams1117 if I recall right) had it's maximum input set to 15v or so...

      @BulldogLowell I fried my breadbord power supply by connecting broken power adaptor(it have me about 13-14V instead of up to 12V), this fried AMS1117 5V. I replaced it, and it's working proper again.
