Binary sensors quit working after update 2021.1.6

wfayard · May 31, 2021, 4:57pm

After I updated from 2021.1.5 to 2021.1.6 all my binary sensors quit working and I’m hoping one of you might spot the problem.
All worked perfect until the up date and work after downgrading back to 2021.1.5. The logs show nothing but " binary sensor not available.
Here is a sample of the code for the ESP8266 and the best I can tell the problem is there.

Here are the logs:

Why not upgrade to the latest 2021.5.5 ? Not many here are likely running a version that old.

I have tried all the latest versions and the binary sensors stop on all of them. It’s like something changed and I don’t know what it is.
I did update esphome and then updated the parts that changed on it such as changing mcp23017 to mcp23xxx but that didn’t help.

did you managed to find the solution?
thx
