Hey,
Can you connect the temperature sensor to port A0 and run the grove_analog_read.py with port as 0 and 1 and post what you get here.

Dear Karan, please find the pic.
Hey,
It does look like that your GrovePi+ is not working properly for some reason and I am not sure why.
Can you contact us through our contact page, under “General Questions and Feedback”http://www.dexterindustries.com/site/?page_id=65 and we’ll send you a replacement board ASAP. Can you just add a link to this forum post so that it easier for us to track the replacement.
Sorry for all the troubles.
-Karan
Dear Karan
Thank you very much for your help. I have already sent the message.
Hi. I have the same problem. Do you think that it is board problem?
Hey bastiao,
Can you describe a bit more about the problem that you are facing and what all have you tried.
-Karan
Hi, I have the same problem too.
The output work (testet for LED and really). But not one of all my sensors work (ultrasonic, light, temperature, sound).
I have installed the setup.py and made the firmware update (1.2.2)
“sudo i2cdetect -y 1” give 04
Thank you
Thorgrimm
Hey Thorgrimm,
Can you try the firmware version 1.1 from here: https://github.com/DexterInd/GrovePi/tree/master/Firmware . Just run v1.1 and see if that works. What is the usual output when you run the programs for the sensor. Can you post a picture of your setup along with the code and the output that you got.
Thanks,
Karan
Hi Karan
I reinstall Raspbian on the SD card
trying Option 1 and Option 2. Same
I tested with V1.1. Same
I tested with grovepi_repair_package.zip (http://www.dexterindustries.com/forum/?topic=analog-sensors-not-working)
Same result as eme43sap
pi@raspberrypi ~/Desktop/FIRMWARE $ sudo ./firmware_update.sh

Testing Firmware version and analog read
GrovePi has firmware version:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “grove_script.py”, line 3, in <module>
print “GrovePi has firmware version:”, grovepi.version()
File “/home/pi/Desktop/FIRMWARE/grovepi.py”, line 218, in version
return “%s.%s.%s” % (number[1], number[2], number[3])
TypeError: ‘int’ object has no attribute ‘getitem’
Grove Pi is broken ?
Thanks,
I’m having the same problem as this. I have managed to get the LED blink test to work by upgrading the firmware but no sensors on the board are working. Is there a resolution to this?
Hey jbb352,
Can you describe more about the problem that you are facing. What sensors have you tries and what output did you get. Also it would be great if you could attach some pictures of the the sensors connected to the GrovePi.
-Karan
Have the same problem with my GrovePi 
Though digital relay works ok, but all other stuff doesn’t
light sensor sends values after like a hundred errors
looks like:

Hey askimer,
Can you describe a bit more about the problem that you are facing. What sensors have you tried on which ports . Also it would be great if you could attach some pictures of the the sensors connected to the GrovePi. Can you run this: https://github.com/DexterInd/GrovePi/blob/master/Software/Python/grove_firmware_version_check.py and let us know what you get.
-Karan
Hey,
We were able to replicate the problem at our end and it looks like it was a problem with the fuses which were burnt on the GrovePi. Can you try running the script that I have attached (Make the script executable sudo chmod +x grove_setup.txt and run it sudo ./grove_setup.txt.) and let us know if the problem goes away for you.
-Karan
Finally I could fix this problem:
========================================
GrovePi has firmware version:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File “grove_script.py”, line 3, in <module>
print “GrovePi has firmware version:”, grovepi.version()
File “/home/pi/Desktop/FIRMWARE/grovepi.py”, line 218, in version
return “%s.%s.%s” % (number[1], number[2], number[3])
TypeError: ‘int’ object has no attribute ‘getitem’
After spending the whole day trying to fix the GrovePi+, as soon as I ran the file grove_setup1.txt attached the card showed the version again:
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ sudo python ~/Desktop/GrovePi/Software/Python/grove_firmware_version_check.py
(‘GrovePi has firmware version:’, ‘1.2.3’)
My GrovePi+ worked yesterday but there was some errors reading sensors so I followed you suggestion to burn your own image in a new SD but it didn’t work and when I returned to my initial image the card reported the above mentioned error. I tried everything I had done before but it didn’t work until I upgraded the firmware with the new version.
Enough for today. Tomorrow I’ll check the sensors.
Toni
This is great news Toni! I’m very glad to hear that this has (hopefully) solved the problem.
When you run the grovePi on your image, have you run the install script on your image?
Yes of course,
I ran several times…
sudo python /home/pi/Desktop/GrovePi/Software/Python/setup.py install
…but it didn’t work.
That just installs python globally. How about the directions that are here:
http://www.dexterindustries.com/GrovePi/get-started-with-the-grovepi/setting-software/
In particular the part about running install.sh
