    bs2-man,

    First disconnect anything plugged into the bs2 except for the power supply. If you have a short (by connecting Vdd with Vss) the light can go out and the board look dead.

    From your very brief description that might cure your problem. If not get a meter and check the voltage regulator. Pin closest to the board should be input voltage, middle pin is the ground and the pin closest to the center of the board is regulated 5 volts.

    If still having problem, add some more information. Are you on battery, what type battery, what is voltage to Vin plug on regulator? ETC...
