Hey All, I have been using an Aqara Motion Sensor P1 for a year-ish now. I had issues at the start, as it was not supported fully and I had to use a querk to get it shown in HA via ZHA. Since support can in I have not really had any issues using it.
When I upgraded to 2023.9.1 it stopped working. It was still shown as a device but the detection always showed “clear”. I could still alter the settings, I could enable the “trigger indicator” setting so the LED would flash when movement was detected and this worked and showed it was getting triggered.
I then upgraded to 2023.9.2 in the hope this would resolve the problem but it did not. Today I restored a backup of 2023.8.4. The sensor is now working as expected. I guess I am stuck on this build until the root cause has been fixed. Has anyone else had this problem?
I am not sure where to log this as a bug, how to report the issue to get it resolved?
I upgraded to 2024.1.5 but still had the same problem, the motion and occupancy stats wouldn’t update. I had already tried removing and re-adding the device but I tried this again but still no luck. I then remembered that I had installed a quirk for this device, I did say about it in the original post. I guess it has been well over a year since I added it, so I assumed it wasn’t affecting anything.
I had to remove the quirk from my /config/quirks folder for the P1 motion sensor. Then I had to remove the device and re-add it. After this, the P1 started functioning normally!!
It would have been great to get some support with this or understand a better way to debug this problem but at least I can leave this trail for anyone else having the same problem to pick up.
