How to check if a (p)HAT is working without a Pi?

Hello together,

i received my Pi Zero W, Enviro PHAT, blinkt and mini black hat hack3r among other things a week ago and started playing around. I got blinkt working (stacked directly on the Pi) and then decided to give those other parts a try.

I did not get them working and might have damaged the Pi in the process (it just gets warm/hot, does not show SD-card activity and furthermore is not registered when connected to a USB-Port).

I already ordered another Pi Zero to continue. What I would like to know is how I can find out if blinkt, Mini black hat hack3r or the Enviro PHAT is still working (and therefore none of them will damage/short circuit the Pi Zero W)?

Furthermore: how should one combine the three units and have them working?
- blinkts rounded corners pointing towards the flat cable?
- Enviro PHATs sensors pointing away from the flat cable?
- Is the flat cable running over the Pi Zero?

Thanks!
