PS3 TE Stick modded with a 360 SF4 MadCatz FightPad 56K death

I did, it says USB is malfunctioning

so after redoing the mod again with another fightpad, this one also had died on me today. I’m getting really frustrated. I don’t understand how it works perfectly fine and then i set it down today and it stopped working… any ideas of what might be happening? I can still turn on the 360 with the home button and the lights flash green for a second and then nothing
