    I have made it all the way to the calibration section, and I see the constant serial output. Unfortunately, it seems the load cell output is always zero. No matter what I do, I'm not really sure I understand how the things work well enough to figure out what to do next. Any pressure on the scale doesn't change any values, therefore either the loadcells are broken (unlikely, it's brand new), or I haven't hooked something up correctly. I have verified all the wiring schematics, so I can't really figure out why the load cell amp isn't doing anything. Any help please? Thanks!

        Kinda, but I don't it's related to any specific product, more like this tutorial in general. I'll see if I can find a place to post. Thanks!

    Hi, I have two arduino nanos communicating via HC-05 bluetooth modules. One of them connected to a bathroom scales and the other arduino has an LCD connected to it. Is it possible to tell me how to do the coding for the arduino who is connected to the scales with HX711 load cells please?

    The scales wires to the arduino are : GND to GND DT to pin 4 on arduino SCk to pin 5 on arduino VCC to 5V on arduino

    I've been looking for a sketch for this project but I cant find one. There are some sketches but they are not for Bluetooth modules. I look forward hearing from you

    Many thanks
