I have a couple of AD apps to control my heavy energy consumers. For thermostats I made rules and changes the target temperature via a service call like this:
thermostat = self.get_entity(self.entity) # entity is the name of the thermostate
thermostat.call_service("set_temperature", temperature = self.getTargetTemp(shallBeOn))
To my problem
Now I would like to do the same thing for the Garo Wall box which is an charger for my car (GitHub - sockless-coding/garo_wallbox: Garo wallbox - Home Assistant Component). It has a service defined to enable/disable charging. I have tried this:
charger = self.get_entity("sensor.charger")
charger.call_service("set_mode", entity_id = "sensor.laddbox", mode = "Off")
and get this in the error log:

The parameter in mode can be wrong. The documentation of the integration says On/Off in some places and ALWAYS_ON/ALWAYS_OFF in other places but that is not the main problem right now.
To me it looks like I call the service on the wrong entity.
Anyone who can see what is wrong?
