Thanks. Tried that. Did not work. :-(
The sensor is working because the countdown is visible and it´s reacting perfectly after detecting motion.
The screen just dont turn off - it stays black which wasn´t an issue before updating.
I´ve tried to

DISPLAY=:0.0 xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off

to see if I am able to turn it off manualy and via SSH. Output:

warning: output HDMI-1 not found; ignoring

Still a bit clueless how to fix that.

Is there another option I could try? I know the monitor is able to be switched off as this was working before.

@Che The real question is now:

What compositor do you use ? (X11, wayfire or labwc)

I purpose to use X11 compositor. (it’s the better choice for rpi 3b+)
Can you try this commands:

sudo raspi-config nonint do_wayland W1
sudo raspi-config nonint do_blanking 0

and reboot your pi

in your config of MMM-Pir, can you try mode 1 in Display block ?
and if not work try mode 2 in Display block

Tell me if better ?

I´ve changed to X11 via raspi config and did the commands. Now it seems working. Thanks so far, buddy.
BUT the Display rotated.
I´ve tried to change it via sudo nano/boot/firmware/config.txt and add display_rotate=1

Edit: Plugged in my USB mouse and changed it manually on the desktop.
I think its working smoothly again.

Merci bien, @bugsounet
