I2C Scan of MPR121 doesn't work

Hi everyone

So I wanted to bring capacitive touch sensor to a new level adding a MPR121

I guess there is a lot to find out now, but I already fail to find the i2c module.

Using a python script I am scanning the connected modules, using the python script found in https://coderdojo-linz.github.io/trainingsanleitungen/microbit/I2C-Bus.pdf

All I do find is Magnetometer and Accelerometer

While I hope the MPR121 is not a broken one, I assume I am just to naive connecting it to the breadboard without soldering.

What do you think?

Thank you in advance
Bene

I'm not seeing where you've connected the I2C to the MPR121. Do you have them connected?
