L293D only outputting 1V to DC motor

I have checked voltages on everything and the one thing that is odd is the output voltage from the L293D output pins (1Y and 2Y) is only 1V. The voltage output from the power module is 5V (d...

Accidentally connected 5V to GPIO27

Hello,
I accidentally connected 5V to GPIO27 and now I cant get anything to work. Even the screen that was connected to my Pi will not seem to work.. The red LED comes on when i plug in the power, but thats about it. I probably just fried it? Is there a way I can check this? It is a Pi 3.
