[Solved] DFplayer Randomly Stops Producing Sound

Hi all, I am currently working on a project which uses the DFplayer mp3 module (bought from aliexpress). I have used these modules in several projects and they always have the same problem; they randomly stop producing sound. Fro example, I would power up the project and everything works fine, but on another power up the module doesn't produce sound. The led lights up when the sound is meant to be played, but there is no audio. I am confident it is not a loose connection issue as this is the third project which I encounter this issue. I tried using a different micro SD card, and the problem persists.

Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated :slight_smile: .

I have solved the issue. The issue was that both GND pins needed to be connected to ground (I only had one of them grounded before).
