OSError: [Errno 5] EIO

After working for a few minutes (with different voltages) this message appears & the microcontroller hangs. Any suggestions?

microcontroller: Raspberrypi Pico micropython version: 1.23.0

OSError: [Errno 5] EIO usually points at a wiring problem of the I2C bus. Are proper pull-up resistors in place? Is GND connected? Do you use proper short wires? I2C is not meant for long wires. If your connection wires are long (>30cm), reduce the value of the pull-up resistors. You can go down to like 220 Ohm.
