So I deleted everything and started over. Followed your instructions from point 5.2 and it’s still not working. Really not sure where to go from here

When I run the python script relayPIR.py, the relay clicks and the green light turns on, but once I end that script, the light doesn’t come back on

I dont hear it clicking. https://www.creatroninc.com/product/5v-10a-dc-relay-module/?search_query=relay&results=39. Thats the relay i purchased

I got a relay and followed your guide to connect it. The relay has an LED light on it but it doesn’t seem to trigger. I still have all the code setup for turning off the HDMI port with the PIR sensor, so I’m not sure if thats the problem. Any suggestions?

I really appreciate the help. Been struggling with the PIR sensor for a week now. Is there a specific relay I should be looking for? I managed to get everything working with the PIR sensor, but once the TV turns off after there is no input detected, the PIR sensor can’t turn the tv back on. So it is not the most viable solution.

I don’t have a relay at the moment but I’m going to order one. In the mean time, I tried part 2 of your guide to test if I could get the PIR sensor working but it’s not. The HDMI port is disabled after 120 seconds of no presence in the sensor. When I wave my hand in front of the sensor to turn the pi back on, the HDMI port activates but I only get a black screen. Any suggestions for what to do?

I’ve been really struggling with setting up a PIR sensor. All I want is for the PIR sensor to turn off the TV monitor, not just the HDMI port which seems to be what most of the modules do. Has anyone done this with their mirror that could help me out? Or is there another option for having monitor turn off when not being used? The mirror will be in my room and I obviously don’t want it on 24/7.
