'm following TheHookUp's guide here using 4x 50kg load cells (here) connected to the amplifier they come with as well as an ESP8266 NodeMCU. I flashed it with Tasomotizer. When I go to calibrate it, the calibration always fails without any further information. I have even purchased a new set of new load cells + amp, re-wired everything together again, and still get the same error with completely new parts. Per the video, I have them set up in a wheatstone bridge.
The scale itself seems to notice the weight go up and down properly, it just don't calibrate. Any ideas why this is or how to troubleshoot further? In both installations, the pins from the load cells to the amp read the same voltage which makes me think it isn't an issue with broken load cells but I'm really not sure how to troubleshoot further. I wish that the error was more verbose rather than just saying calibration failed.
