Upload a picture of your esp32 connections and explain your wiring, so we could try to debug it
Wiring? Both cards have micro usb port. When i used the CP2102 USB to UART Converter, i used these pins:
CP2102 USB to UART > 5v > VI ESP
CP2102 USB to UART > GND> GND > ESP
CP2102 USB to UART > TX> RX > ESP
CP2102 USB to UART > RX > TX > ESP
and the other way around.

Datasheet ESP WROOM 32
I added a level shifter, since the Bosch Climate 5000i AC use 4V+ and the ESP8266 3.3V. The AC still not recognize the ESP.
Any help?
Iām currently considering whether to buy a Bosch CLC8001i. Has anyone integrated this model into Home Assistant using ESPHome, and does it work?
Or are there other integration options for this model? For example, via Wi-Fi, Home Connect, etc.?
I was also getting timeouts when using pins 1 and 3 and managed to get my Bosch 3000i to work with a ESP32 D1 Mini by using the other RX / TX pair, which in my case are pins 16 and 17.
Iām looking at the Climate 8101i. Curious if there is a esphome solution for this one as well.
Hello,
I bought these modules to replace bosch usb keys for my 5000i AC => https://www.tindie.com/products/smartlightme/wifi-dongle-for-air-conditioners-midea-electrolux and was able to integrate them into homeassistant.with ESPHome Integration.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to make it work with Google Assistant ?
Thank
Schould work if Sharp based
Hello. Can you post exactly the hardware and software used ?
thanks.

Hi guys,
For anyone interested Iāve created a cloud pooling integration that works with Bosch HomeCom Easy app, Iāve tested with my Bosch Climate 6000i ACs

Oh @serbanb11 thank you so much for it! I was looking forward to have something like this! Unfortunately I just bought a SLWF-01 the past week and itās working perfectly, so now I donāt have any Bosch device to test it.
Hi can someone please tell me what the connector is called that clips on to the c3+5v. Is it a PH 2.0? Thanks
Has anyone tried connecting the Bosch Climate 5000i airconditioning via Matter? According to Bosch Customer Service the IP Gateway G10-3 should give the airconditioning unit WiFi capability and the ability to connect the airconditioning via Matter.
Despite the information from the Customer Service, Iām not entirely convinced yet because the user manual I could find of the IP Gateway G10-3 doesnāt mention anything about Matter. On the other side:
- the Dutch website of Bosch (their Dutch subsidiary āNefit-Boschā) does write about Matter in their HomeCom Easy App FAQ: https://www.nefit-bosch.nl/consument/na-je-aankoop/apps-en-online-tools/homecom-easy#:~:text=Waar%20is%20de,van%20uw%20apparaten.
- The Bosch Climate 7000i airconditioning should also be Matter enabled even though they donāt really advertise it (but Matter is mentioned in a user manual I could find: Bosch Climate 7000i - Conditioner Manual | ManualsLib)
I have asked the customer service department for more information. Iām in the market to buy a few airconditioning units and believe Matter support would probably be the easiest and most reliable way to bring airconditioning units into Home Assistant.
Who has tried the IP Gateway G10-3 and knows more about Boschā matter support in their airconditioning units?
Got a little bit further with the customer service desk from Bosch Belgium:
Last week an update of the HomeComEasy app was launched. This makes it possible to connect air conditioning units with a wifi gateway G10-3 to Matter. Possibilities will depend on the air conditioning unit, single or split, and the type, and the application used
So this might be the first Matter enabled airconditioning unit in Europe?
Still unsure what functionality will be available through Matter but I guess we will find out.
Iām due to have a Bosch system with two indoor 3000i units installed in August. The package includes āBosch Wifi Connectivity Moduleā and a Google Home Mini for voice control, so think this might be via Matter? Trying to get the technical survey guy to confirmā¦
Edit: Technical survey chap had never heard of Matter, and wouldnāt even know who to ask about that, so suggested Googling it. 
Guess Iāll find out what the sketch is in August. 
Hi, I connect my 3000i AC with G10-3 Wifi Stick and Matter to my Homeassistant.
This is how it looks like.
Best Regards Andy

So i could connect my air 2000i using the matter integration but i cannot set it to sleep mode (which runs the ventilator on low and turns off the LEDs on the buttons), the sleep mode just turns off the device completely. I would like to just turn it to the existing night mode like in the bosch app 
So the presets are not working correctly and i cannot control the stupid light ring as wellā¦

Any ideas?
Got this working with the new Bosch Climate 8101i with pre installed Wi-Fi. Opening the indoor unit was a bit difficult, as it is different from the manual of the 8100i.
I flashed an ESP32 with the ESPhome code from Sven and connected the four wires to pins 1 through 4. The pinout is the same on this thing, but the plug is different. It seems to be crimped and soldered directly on. I could pull out the existing cables and use jumpers into the crimp. It seems to hold quite well.
Perfect, could you open a discussion in the repo with pictures and logs that I can also use for the README?
