Hi there maybe a clue for you in this Thread
I was having the same issue last week, were my sensor will always read a value of 20. During my trials and errors, strong possibilities that I short circuit it due to negligent wiring or bad sensor from the start. I am not sure. But I purchase a set of 6 from ebay for about 10$ ( free shipping). They arrive in the mail yesterday, pop in in and everything work fine now.
Keep in mind that the polarity in the Hc-sr04 is not in the same order with the polarity in the EZ-B. That was my first mistake, maybe why my Hc-sr04 had a short.
Hc-sr04 ( VCC - TRIGG - ECHO - GROUND) EZ-B port D0 ( GND - vcc-TRIG ) EZ-B port D1 ( Echo)
make sure that you have ground to ground ,vcc-vcc trig to trig echo to echo, double check your wiring.
