@ReneNulschDE It was jan. '21 when I posted this message below :-), now it is time to move on. Thank you very much for all your hard work and effort you have put into this integration for all these years already. Decided to switch to a Tesla (lease) so I wonā€™t be using your services anymore. Keep up the great work for this community for all current and future MB drivers! Much appreciated! Mercedes Me Component - #558 by Mobiledude

The map on the card is build with leaflet open source library, same as in HA. Google map is not free. :sweat_smile: :sweat_smile:

Wouldnā€™t you mind share your images folder? I have an EQB and have no clue how to get these images. Rene is mentioning a beta version to grab these images but couldnā€™t figure out where it is :slight_smile:

Developer tools > Action > mbapi2020.download_images insert car VIN keyā€¦

I apologize that this is such a stupid question, but Iā€™m only a few days into switching over form Homeseer and there is a simple concept that is going over my head with some of these HACS integrations. Iā€™ve got HACS in-place, seemingly working properlty and Iā€™ve added a couple integrations. With this one, for instance, it says:

  • Use the ā€œAdd Integrationā€ in Home Assistant, Settings, Devices & Services and select ā€œMercedesME 2020ā€.
  • Use your MB-login email address. Your will receive a 6-digit code via email (valid for 15min).

Iā€™ve completed the Add Integration part, after the restart, but I donā€™t understand where the jump to MB-login happens? I feel like Iā€™ve poked around every, at least 10 times, so I assume Iā€™m missing some YAML configuration or something.

Thank you, in advance, for helping my past this basic hurdle that seems to be holding me back!

Hi, Welcome in the Home Assistant World :wink:

There is no need for any yaml stuff ā€¦

I assume you have installed the MB-component via HACS. Please restart HA after the download. Then refresh your browser window with for example Ctrl+F5 on Windows. Now go to the Settings, Devices + Servicesā€¦ Click on the " + Add Integration" button on the right-bottom side and search for Mercedes or MBAPI2020ā€¦ ā†’

Let me know if you need more helpā€¦

PS: Maybe you have installed the ā€œmercedes_me_apiā€ component from @Giorgio_Ravera - this is an old component. MB has stopped the public apiā€¦ - please use the MBAPI2020 componentā€¦

Thank you very much! Iā€™ve got my server going through some other reboot stuff now, but will walk back through this. Thank you!

This did it! I was missing the part where an HACS Integration becomes searchable after adding through HACS - makes sense now! Thank you!

If anyone is up for another dumb noob question, since Iā€™m still not there after watching 3 videos and perusing numerous sites. How do a I add a custom card, like the ones presented in this thread, to my HA? I tried it with @VietNgoc cool card, but canā€™t seem to get it to show up. I downloaded the components and added the Resources Config, I think.
If it helps, Iā€™m running HA OS in a VM on TrueNAS.
Thanks again!

Got it - just needed a couple more restarts and a couple more drinks! Now Iā€™m truckin!

I have a question about @VietNgocā€™s custom card. Iā€™ve added a custom button to show fuel in litres:

> {{float(states('sensor.*******_fuel_level')) * 43/100 }} 
> ({{int(states('sensor.*******_fuel_level'))}}%)

If I click the card I get this

Iā€™ve tried various flavours of YAML to show info but canā€™t get anything. What should I be doing?

You have no lovelace config for this button. Config for a custom card should look like the normal yaml format for lovelace

Got it. I missed out the dash.
