Issue with HTU21D on alternative i2c connection

Archive HASSbian
1

I’m using HASS version 0.81.1
Not succeeding to have sensor working.

HTU21D sensor not detected in bus 0
2:22 AM components/sensor/htu21d.py (ERROR)

Bad reading: 5
2:22 AM /srv/homeassistant/lib/python3.5/site-packages/i2csense/init.py (ERROR)

I even created a complete new clean build.
(sudo) i2cdetect -y 0 shows sensor at x40 !
In fact i’m using pins 28/29 to connect my sensor, having a ZigBee board using my first range of pins.

I tried a lot of solutions, including different entries in config.txt…

  • platform: htu21d
    i2c_bus: 0
    i2c_address: 0x40
    in configuration.yaml

Any help/suggestions welcome

Similar issue here, but not on an alternative bus. After upgrading Home Assistant on a Raspberry Pi 3 B+ from 0.75.3 to 0.83.3 my HTU21D sensor is no longer detected. Any help will be much appreciated. Thank you.

See below for details.

I’m having the exact same issue as you, and getting the exact same errors.

Did you manage to solve it somehow?
