Hello,

After update and upgrade my RPI3 I got this message… My son would like to start with his Explorer Hat but I cant get the i2c to work. Can anybody help me? i2cdetect -y 1 (at the bottom) did not retrun an adres…

Thanks!

I can’t recall what the failure mode for i2cdetect is when i2c isn’t fully enabled, but it might be worth checking Raspberry Pi Configuration (or sudo raspi-config from the command line) and double-checking i2c is enabled, and/or turning it off then on again, as a first point of call.

Try following the tutorial here to manually turn on I2C again.

Could be fried? Mine was showing that. I presumed it was a Rasbian issue as I had everything working and then my SD card corrupted. I rebuilt with stretch and I couldn’t get the explorer phat working. So rebuilt again with Jessie and still didn’t work.

I tried another explorer phat I had sitting around and that worked fine. So it seems my original phat just failed. :(

hello,
sorry to drag up an old thread but I’ve just encountered this problem too.
I’ve tried updating and flicking between I2C enable and disabled and rebooting but i also get the “could not find Analog or Touch… Please check your i2c settings” warning.
any further advice?

Pi 3 or 4? Hat fitted correctly, soldering ok?

Pi 3
HAT connected securely via GPIO.
Cannot see any damage to either Pi3 or the HAT
