Esp8266 with temp and humidity sensor not visible in ESPHome but not dashboard

Hi All,

EDIT: I may have fixed it, i went to the esphome integration and saw this one board being in there twice, with exactly the same name and IP, i deleted one, pressed reconfigure on the other and now i see it again. Not sure how that happened, I have had that sensor for years.


For a few months I have something weird. One of my temp and humidity sensors is not working anymore in my dashboard (The entity is greyed out), but if I open it through esphome it is up and running and sending data. Neither temp or humidity sensors work in my dashboard. In the past I had some success with restarting my pi which runs HA, but today that did not work. I have also moved the sensor to a new location, thinking maybe it had a bad signal but that does not appear to be the case either

The sensor is a DHT sensor.

Below the sensor’s config, but as i said it works fine if i open it in esphome
captive_portal:

sensor:

  • platform: dht
    pin: GPIO2
    temperature:
    name: “Office Temperature”
    humidity:
    name: “Office Humidity”
    update_interval: 10s

  • platform: adc
    pin: VCC
    name: “VCC office”

    I thought about recreating the entity but it is greyed out (see picture)

Any ideas?
Cheers
Hans
