Custom Integration: Volkswagen WeConnect ID (Europe)

Sorry, I will elaborate. A couple of years ago I bought a Passat (ICE). I connected that to the We connect app. One year ago, when we got our ID3, I downloaded the ID connect app and added the ID3 to that app. But hwn I did that, my Passat was already present in the ID app. Maybe because I used the same account/credentials as I did when I created the account for We connect for ICE cars.

So, when you added the “is electric car” check, I wasn’t able to add the ID car since I also had an non electric car connected also. When I removed the non electric and only had my electric car, then it worked.

So now I only have one car in HA, the ID3. Before you added the check, I had both my cars.

Not a Biggie for me, but maybe for other people. Just giving you a heads up. :wink:

Hi there

Thanks for the effort. I gave it a go, installed the main branch via HACS, but get a error. I opened an issue in GitHub. Basically the Waiting screen also pops up, as described by @Henke22 .

@Henke22 Which old version did you install that worked?

I am not sure what the issue might be. I did have the same problem, but it disappeared and I do not know why or what I did.
Do you also have one electric car and a petrol/diesel car in your account?

Volkswagen changed the login form again.
So i’ve bumped the library version after the creator made a fix.

Also changed the electric car check, this integration should only add the cars that are electric. No hybrids or other ICE cars.

Does your integration work with non ID series like me trusty e-Up?

I did not test the E-UP, can you control it with the Volkswagen WeConnect-ID app?

Thanks Mitch for the prompt reply.

Yes, the weconnectID works, somewhat.

I tried your integration, It kinda worked, but did not give the sensor battery% that I really needed.

I managed to get it using a skagmo’s integration.

Will probably check out your integration again at some time in the future.

I really appreciate the work you have done.

I agree about the batterysensor that’s the most important sensor.
Do you get any error messages in the log?

Did not see any error messages. Some of the entities were flagged as unavailable. Might be that EUp not ID. Will try again in a couple of weeks when I’ve some spare time.

I assume that you can use the other integration, We Connect?

by now I have updated home assistant to the lastets version. I get the following pop-up displaying forever:

Is there somewhere in the folders some changes where I can see if the plugin is really set up?

I just downgraded to 0.8.2, restarted HA and now I get a login screen. Success!

hello, i have view usefully services like set climate, or start stop charge. Is possible to create a frontend card on home assistant for choice temperature or a start-stop or charge speed with dropdown menu?? How??

Hey Mitch, Just added your custom component for my ID3, awesome work thanks.

I couldn’t find your component in HACs, only the non ID one which obviously didn’t work for me.

Anyhow, I’ve installed it manually and all connected to my ID3 nicely, I will play with the ability to start the heating from HA shortly.

Is there a way to change the sensor values from km to miles anywhere?

Thanks again for your efforts.

Hi, I have tried to install my wife’s ID3 on this integration. She did not get any pin when she linked the connect app to the car. I cannot get the integration to start. Any tips, please?

fantastic integration, just installed and it’s worked first time - thanks a lot!

At the moment i’ve only focused on metric values.
Will take a look at imperial when i got some spare time :slight_smile:

Are you sure you got the right integration? I don’t ask for a pin anywhere.

Thank you I will install this one not the other Volkswagen connect (not ID car specific) integration.

I am very sorry, I cannot find this integration in Hacs or the main integrations menu. I have searched for every variation I could think of (Volkswagen, connect, vw, id etc). I have the latest hacs 1.23.
