Stuck on a "unqualified ID" code problem

Need Help With My Project
1

I’m sure the issue is looking me right in the face here, but I keep getting the following error. Just getting started on this and can’t make it past this part. I’m new at this any help is much appreciated. I’m sure I’ll find more ing here as I go along.

// You should get Auth Token in the Blynk App.

  Blynk.begin(auth, ssid, pass);
}

{                                                                    *This is the spot in the sketch I have the problem*
  // Make sure the sensor is found, you can also pass in a different i2c //
  (!tempsensor_1.begin(0x18)) {
    if (!tempsensor_2.begin(0x19))
      if (!tempsensor_3.begin(0x1A))

      }
  void loop() {


    // Read and print out the temperature, then convert to *F
    float c1 = tempsensor_1.readTempC();
    float c2 = tempsensor_2.readTempC();
    float c3 = tempsensor_3.readTempC();
    float f1 = c1 * 9.0 / 5.0 + 32;
    float f2 = c2 * 9.0 / 5.0 + 32;
    float f3 = c3 * 9.0 / 5.0 + 32;
    Blynk.virtualWrite(V5, f1);
    Blynk.virtualWrite(V6, f2);
    Blynk.virtualWrite(V7, f3);

  }```

you need to write the code correctly.

where did you copy the code from? make sure it is correctly bracketed.

Don’t recall where I got it, I do know it worked fine with just two sensors then ran into issues when I added the third. So it’s a bracketing issue? I tried several different permutations.

keep trying

you don’t seem to have added the third sensor properly.

but since you put typing in you code to point out where the problem is - we cant work out how.

{
// Make sure the sensor is found, you can also pass in a different i2c
if (!tempsensor_1.begin(0x18)) 
if (!tempsensor_2.begin(0x19))
if (!tempsensor_3.begin(0x1A))
}

see if that allows it to compile?

i asked where you got it from because that section of code is a bit weird to me .

plus you don’t even have blynk.run() in your loop so not sure if that is actually your full code?

That fix got me farther down the sketch, thanks. Working on other issues down the line
