Hi,
I uploaded the code found https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-mmc ... er/arduino on my Arduino board. And the values on my serial monitor don't change. I have to press on the magneto sensor as shown below for the values to change. I have tried to press on specific components to determine what could be causing the issue but I could not figure it out. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
1) The code
2) An image of the magneto sensor when it is not working properly
3) An image of the magneto sensor when I am pressing it and it is working

By the way, here are the values that I get when it is not working.

Weird. The basic connections must be OK, since it's not complaining about "no MMC5603 detected".
Can you try the other STEMMA QT connector on the breakout and see if that has any effect.

Hi,
I tried to use the other STEMMA QT connector and it resulted in the same thing. I also tried using the other connector on the breakout, connecting both connectors at the same time (since I thought me pushing on it just meant there was a connection problem), and changing arduino board.
Best wishes,

OK, thanks for trying. Let's just replace it. Seems like something marginal.
Send an email to [email protected] with a link to this thread and your order number and they can send you a replacement MMC5603.
