Had to update to a new pi and redo my homebridge install. This is the last piece of my puzzle to get working.

I had the same problem, end up fixing it by wrapping the GPIO ID with double quote.

            "doorSwitchPin": "17",
            "doorSensorPin": "18",

Thank you! I can’t believe it was something so simple. I wasted so much time trying other people’s code.
