Hello,

I still haven’t found a solution for using a **micro:bit V2** with the **DHT22** sensor. As far as I can tell from my testing, readings with **MakeCode** still do not work.

Has anyone found a solution to this issue? Or am I doing something wrong?

I have tested the following example: [https://makecode.microbit.org/S32634-23373-77321-41869](https://makecode.microbit.org/S32634-23373-77321-41869)

Even Copilot indicates that the libraries are up to date, but it still does not work. The same sensors work correctly on a **micro:bit V1**.

Thank you.

It looks like you are using blocks based on an older version [https://github.com/MonadnockSystems/pxt-dht11](https://github.com/MonadnockSystems/pxt-dht11). Have you tried the original?

Thank you, Don.

I am using **MakeCode** , which is up to date, and I am using the latest extension available.

I tried the link you provided, but I only have a bunch of DHT22 sensors.

What I don’t understand is how it could be based on an old version if it’s a web-based tool that is supposed to be current and up to date.

Am I missing something?
