ESP32 flame sensor false triggering — need help

I’m using an ESP32 with a flame sensor and buzzer. The problem is that the buzzer turns ON even when there is no flame.

I tried:

\- Adjusting the sensor potentiometer

\- Changing the code

\- Changing the sensor position

But it still triggers without a flame. The ESP32 and buzzer are working properly.

Could this be a wiring issue, inverted HIGH/LOW output, faulty sensor, or something else? How can I test whether the flame sensor itself is working correctly?

I’m a beginner, so any simple troubleshooting steps would be really helpful.

Suggest some books

Heyyy.......recently joined Kairali School in Class 11 and wanted to know what the school is like. How are the teachers, the overall environment, and student life there? Is the atmosphere friendly for new students? I'd love to hear experiences from current students or alumni. Any advice or tips would be appreciated. Thanks....
