If DT stays high all the time:

  • Try connecting DT through a 10kΩ resistor to GND externally — not just using INPUT_PULLDOWN.

Or just add:

pinMode(DOUT, INPUT); // Remove pulldown if it conflicts

Even if you’re using Bogdan’s, test with HX711 by Rob Tillaart or SparkFun’s — the initialization timing and pin handling differs slightly.
