HA is config for miles, but the numbers pulled through by the api are in km when comparing with my mobile app in miles.

369

Could you share some screenshots?

370

I have the same issue with miles/km (I am in the UK). My app shows miles, and my HA instance is in miles, but the sensor is in km. I just have a template sensor that converts this to miles.

EDIT: Well I never, jut realised my HA is in metric
changes to imperial in configuration.yaml and the sensor is in miles! Probably had this about 18 months lol and never noticed. :laughing:

I have pushed a new version 0.3.6.

New:
Sensor:

  • car alarm
    attributes: lastTheftWarning, towSensor, theftSystemArmed, parkEventType, parkEventLevel, carAlarmLastTime, towProtectionSensorStatus, theftAlarmActive, lastTheftWarningReason, lastParkEvent, collisionAlarmTimestamp, interiorSensor, carAlarmReason

Changes:

  • Attributes with status NOT_RECEIVED will be shown now. Value is set to NOT_RECEIVED.

Notes:

  • The sensor is visible when the feature CAR_ALARM is ACTIVE in your car. (See feat_*.json")

@henwick2144: Thank you for your support.

Maybe MB backend issues?

YES! So happy (sorry) to see that I’m not alone! This has been since 4am and I was worried it was due to the recent update! I sent a msg but I’m sure it will be resolved before I get a response!

I can confirm that Mercedes-Benz is experiencing difficulties with there Mercedes Me Connect.
I called their USA hotline.
No expectation was stated as to their recovery of services.

Yup all well again.

Looks like an error in the North-America region. The server answers with HTTP 502. Europe region looks good

Edit: Looks like the problems are solved.

376

Yes; all good now.

I just tried to set this component up but I am getting errors.

2020-02-24 10:14:23 ERROR (MainThread) [custom_components.mercedesmeapi.binary_sensor] No cars found. Check component log.
2020-02-24 10:14:25 INFO (MainThread) [custom_components.mercedesmeapi.lock] No Cars found.

Turning on debug logging it manages to login to my mercedes me account and get data but mercedesme is returning empty data for vehicles.

It also returns “havingPin”: false, which is incorrect I can see my pin in the mercedes me website. I don’t see a way to check the pin in the iPhone app however.

"user": {
    "ciamId": "xxxxxxxxxx",
    "firstName": "Ronald",
    "lastName1": "xxxxx",
    "lastName2": null,
    "preferredLanguageCode": "en",
    "accountCountryCode": "US",
    "havingPin": false,
    "formattedName": "Ronald xxxxx",
    "accountIdentifierText": "[email protected]"
  },
  "vehicles": [], ...

I notice the documentation says US on works with “newer cars”. What is the definition of newer? I have 2017 GLS450.

378

Hi @smart,

Never cars means 2019er cars from an US market perspective. Please check if you could use the app „Mercedes me connect“ . If you see cars in the app then the component should work. If you use the app „Mercedes me (US)“ the component will not work.

Thanks, I use the app “Mercedes Me” and just checked the newer Mercedes me connect and it doesn’t see my car. So I guess I am out of luck. Which makes sense since I have a 2017 not 2019 vehicle. Thanks for the quick reply.

380

Seems like MB having issues once again
 Anyone else?

381

no, looks good for US currently
Yes, component can’t connect to some endpoints

382

And we just had a 20cm snowfall this morning - that car starter would have came in handy. Too bad we cant start the car using the physical remote

Hi,

After update to latest version v0.3.6 I do get below error, any ideas?

Error during setup of component mercedesmeapi

is there anyway to disaply each tyres pressure on an image, instead of just on click when it pops up?

Hi @Jef,

does the mobile app work? KeyError: ‘vehicles’ means that the Mercedes API does not delivered a valid json. Please restart and try again. If this not help - delete the .mercedesme-token-cache file in your configuration directory and switch on the debug log.

Hi @jwnesbitt,

please check the posting around posting 234 or ask @exus85 or @Sdomotica_Automation or @Manuel82 if they could share the code.
