ESP32-DEVKIT-V1 Guru Meditation error

[bytebandit]

Hello, i was working with my ESP32 car and i forgot to remove the ESP32 completely to code it (it had no effect on anything) but it was working fine and now this code (that used to work) is giving me a guru meditation error

Code: Select all

void loop() {
  policeBeaconAnimation();

  // Update servo position only when triggered
  if (servoActionTime && millis() - servoActionTime >= 15) {
    myServo.write(targetServoAngle);
    servoActionTime = 0;
  }

  // Debug motor pins state every second
  static unsigned long lastDebug = 0;
  if (millis() - lastDebug > 1000) {
    lastDebug = millis();
    Serial.print("Motor pins states - IN1: ");
    Serial.print(digitalRead(IN1));
    Serial.print(", IN2: ");
    Serial.print(digitalRead(IN2));
    Serial.print(", IN3: ");
    Serial.print(digitalRead(IN3));
    Serial.print(", IN4: ");
    Serial.println(digitalRead(IN4));
  }
}

Does anyone know how to fix it? It says it's due to a null something exception but i think the

Code: Select all

String value = pCharacteristic->getValue();

is incorrect because normally it's

Code: Select all

 std::string value ... 

but it didn't work so i made it a String. Also is there any chance i could have fried it?

Thanks in advance for the help,
