PIR not working on Magic Mirror

[hec59]

I followed the instructions to the best of my ability and this does not work. I have a Pi4 4gb. If any one can write the instructions down step by step as if I was a 2 year old, this would be much appreciated. I have no experience in coding or linux. Thanks in advance

Same for me; I included the following within the config file, but the screen goes blank immediately and it seems impossible to re-awake it. I have had to go back to a backup .dmg

config: {
sensorPin: 22,
powerSaving: true,
powerSavingDelay: 30,

I'm using a fairly new Benq LCD screen, and the centre wire is connected to BCM 22.

TIA

Same for me. The screen goes black and blank as soon as I start up magic mirror, have to quit to get back to seeing anything on my screen. I remove the module from configure file and everything works again. Any ideas?

I think it's a problem with rebuild of node-abi which makes MMM-PIR module crashing Magic Mirror.
Please try this command: npm upgrade node-abi --depth=100
This worked for me :-)

same issue here ->

	modules: [
		{
		module: "MMM-PIR-Sensor",
			config: {
				// default pin is 22 - view here https://pinout.xyz/
				powerSavingDelay: 60,
				preventHDMITimeout: 7,
				presenceIndicator: "fa-eye", // Customizing the indicator
				presenceOffIndicator: "fa-eye", // Customizing the indicator
				presenceIndicatorColor: "#f51d16", // Customizing the indicator
				presenceOffIndicatorColor: "#2b271c" // Customizing the indicator
			}
		},

and the output is

pi@raspberrypi:~/MagicMirror $ npm start
