Not getting by lox.begin() #32

Hey,

I followed the setup for the vl53l0x as shown in --> https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-vl53l0x-micro-lidar-distance-sensor-breakout/arduino-code, but the program is not running correctly.

  Serial.println("Adafruit VL53L0X test");
  Serial.println("this is a test");
  if (!lox.begin()) {
    Serial.println("this failed to boot");
    Serial.println(F("Failed to boot VL53L0X"));
    while(1);
  }
  Serial.println("I got through the boot stage");

When I open the serial window, I get "Adafruit VL53L0X test" and "this is a test", but I don't get anything after that. This makes me think that the program is not getting by lox.begin().

Any advice? Cheers
