Hi all,
I’m working on my first custom integration. In Europe we use the We Connect ID app to control basic functions of our electric Volkswagens, in the USA the CarNet app is used.
At this moment the integration is in a very early fase but i like to get feedback and help people that have the same car and want to add it to their setup.
- Sensors for SoC
- Sensors for Climate
- Service to set target SoC
- Service to start climatization with target heat (cool/heat)
Example automations:
Start warming up the cabin when it’s freezing outside
- alias: Car - Start preheating the cabin when it's freezing
id: 4008ba82-bb35-4b2f-85b3-96dca152efd1 # Make this unique
trigger:
- platform: time
at:
- "07:00:00"
condition:
condition: numeric_state
entity_id: weather.torentje
attribute: temperature
below: 1
action:
- service: volkswagen_we_connect_id.volkswagen_id_set_climatisation
data:
vin: WVGZZZE2ZMP4201337
start_stop: start
target_temp: 20
My advice is to create a seperate automation for when the car actually starts heating up, the VW api is really slow and not really bullit proof.
Send messsage when car is heating up:
automation:
- alias: Car - Notification when car started to heat up the cabin
id: 919b5fbf-b1c7-41ec-a31f-3c9a14785bf0 # Make this unique
trigger:
- platform: state
entity_id: sensor.volkswagen_id_komo_climatisation_state # Change entities
to: "heating"
action:
- service: notify.mobile_app_mitchells_ifoon_app # Change entities
data:
message: "🔥 Komo is heating up the cabin to {{states.sensor.volkswagen_id_komo_target_temperature.state}}°C. It's done at {{ (now()|as_timestamp + (float(states('sensor.volkswagen_id_komo_remaining_climatisation_time')) * 60 ))|timestamp_custom('%H:%M', True) }}." # Change entities or change the message

Send messsage when car is done charging:
