I’m in the same boat as @jeremytodd1
For as long as I can remember, only the ON button has been working.
Thank you so much for this. First blueprint I have tried that works like expected with RWL021
Hey, that was the solution in my case too!
But I also didn’t understand why the variable is no longer pulled correctly.
Thank you!
doest seem to work for me,
I can only get the on button to work.
randomly thought i would try and change the on button to turn off the light and that doesn’t work either. Although i am very new here it could just be my coding lol

Same for me. Something changed and now I can only use the turn on button, everything else is without function.
by me the same 
that worked like a charm, thx!
I have exactly the same behavior. Only the ON button works.
Does anybody know what’s ther problem with it?

I have the same behavior. any fix would be great.
sorry where can I change this. Still a noob to HA…
I am on ZHA Skyconnect only and use a RWL021 probably v1. It is quite old
I spent some time learning how Blueprints work yesterday and came up with this modification of the original. Note this has only been tested with the v1 remote as that’s all I have but it restores functionality to all buttons for me.
blueprint:
name: ZHA - Philips Hue Dimmer Switch (Fixed)
description: 'Control lights with a Philips Hue Dimmer Switch.
The top "on" button will turn the lights on to the last set brightness
(unless the force brightness is toggled on in the blueprint).
Dim up/down buttons will change the brightness smoothly and can be pressed
and hold until the brightness is satisfactory.
The bottom "off" button will turn the lights off.

I did try setting trigger.event.data.params.step_mode as a step_mode variable in the actions but I couldn’t get it to work

Nice this worked for me. Thanks!
I can only use the off button, the other buttons aren’t working for me. I have the
RWL021
by Philips
Firmware: 0x42006f9d
fantastic thank you for mentioning this!
This blueprint solved the problem with the blueprint in the thread start where only the “on” button works.
I had trouble figuring out how to get @Twiglet’s blueprint into my Home Assistant. The only way I managed to figure out to get it to work was to import the original blueprint and then replace the contents of blueprints\automation\vanstinator\zha-philips-hue-dimmer-switch-rwl020-rwl021 with @Twiglet’s code. There is probably some better way to do it.
Thanks anyway @Twiglet!

Thanks, that fixed the issue for my old Hue Dimmer RWL032
Is anybody using this blueprint having issues since the 2024.11 update? I have a light group set for light(s) to control but only one light from the group is being controlled.
Update: It seems I had to alter the mode from restart to single in the YAML but after that everything is back to normal. Very odd and I’m still not sure why it’s fixed.
I have als an issue with the dimmer. Not sure if I have the same issue. I just started to use the dimmer with ZHA instead of hue bridge. And wanted to use this automation. Could not get it to work. Also altering the mode did not work. Also every time I open the automation and don’t do anything it wants to save? So maybe something is broken in homeassistant?
this worked!!

I think something changed with the order commands are coming in.
A single button press generates a command: off_press and one command: off_short_release, in that order. The off_short_release doesn’t trigger any actions in the automation, but when the automation is in mode: restart, it restarts the automation.
I don’t know if the order was different before though, or if something else changed.
