Is there any Serial output?

Yeah its prints the pps, just gets hot. Its not the ESP32 module though its some part of the USB to TTL i think .

Someone else had its esp running hot too and powering it directly with 3.3v fixed it. someone should try as i dont have a 3.3v supply

You can buy a USB->TTL tool. Most pf them provides 3v3 pin.
