Have you tried doing this with a program or from the BIOS?

bios.

Bios up-to-date? using an unlocked CPU?

[dome3731]

Which exact CPU and motherboard do you have?

its a bclk overclock with a asus z170 a and an i5 6500. i got it to work like a week ago but now i cant get the voltage to up at all. it just stays at 1.136

That CPU is not overclockable so maybe that's why.

[dome3731]

Do you have appropriate cooling for it at least?

Oh, okay but it's still not meant to be overclocked and maybe that caused some kind of issue. Otherwise you can try updating the BIOS or rebooting a few times or something.

ill try flashing that bios again.?

maybe it rolled to the other bios then...

Clear CMOS and try again... It reminds me of that episode of Scrapyard Wars, where Linus made the deal of a bad OC and you had to reset to defaults. Good luck!
