        I changed the module node_helper.js and restarted MagicMirror. However, I am still not getting any new error message. It’s still the same NULL error. Can you please check below and see if I changed it properly? Thank you.

            Below is the complete module node_helper,js that came with the module. Can you please send me back what it should contain to get more info about the error? Thank you.

              @basho429 ok, we are talking different modules now

              that is the MMM-BMW-OW module

              to get its helper back, in that module folder do

              git checkout node_helper.js
              

              my code goes in the node_helper.js for MMM-OpenWeatherMapForecast module only

                Apologies for the mix-up. Noob mistake. I was looking at the wrong node_helper.js. I changed the correct node_helper.js and got an error message that says ** bad status ** 401. What does that mean? Thank you.

                  @basho429 401 is authorization error… so your api_key is not good…

                  we had to make a change in the default module that uses openweathermap
                  try changing this

                  "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/onecall"
                  

                  to this

                  "https://api.openweathermap.org/data/3.0/onecall"

                    I am using the same api key for the default weather module that came with MagicMirror (and it works fine). Does that mean I need separate api keys for separate modules? Or I can only use one weather module at a time?

                    I made the change from 2.5 to 3.0 on the node_helper.js.

                    Thank you.

                      @basho429 did the change make a difference?

                      I do not know otherwise

                        I created a new api key but I am still getting a 401 error.

                        I will remove the module and re-install. Maybe that will work.

                        Any suggestions?

                        Thank you.
