Cant get hass to start!

So im not sure if i have broken config (i dont think so, i put them all through lint checking) or this is a post update but from 0.67.1, but i cant get HA to start. Everything was running fine until tonight.

I get this panic error when i try and start HA (hassio ha start/restart etc)

    ERROR
panic: interface conversion: interface is nil, not string

I have reflashed twice. HA runs fine, until i do anything config wise. I revert all the config files back to default, doesnt seem to make any difference.

Any ideas ?

Ahh! So turns out i have a custom component for a motion sensor. Once i remove any reference to that from my config and automations, hass starts fine.

Frustrating but glad i have an answer.
