Worked great one day - then stopped

I bought this to have a case to program my Arduino. The old one works fine for me but I'm concerned about the open fee. Only after a day it didn't work. Could I have done something wrong? I'm unlikely to find myself on an ESD protected workbench and I've been using my open board converter for years with no problems. My computer didn't switch between a working device and not. What I liked: - The case is well made, protects the board from accidental contact with some other wires on the stand. - Looks nice. Transparent plastic is crystal clear. The transmit and receive LEDs are located next to the corresponding pin. Nice gesture. The board looks good and the soldering looks good. Looks like a top build. The 5V / 3.3V switch stops are a recess in the housing. There is no presentation. What I didn't like: - Nothing but failure in one day. I'm serious, I think it's a great little build. I was just unlucky.
