The SOC was at 68% when I tried. Turning the heater on and off worked well in the official app.
Please let me know if there is anything I can do to assist with debugging.

Hi @ReneNulschDE
very appreciate for the integration, it’s really cool if I can call siri to unlock my car.
I tried 2 days to configure the Mercedes Me 2020 integration but failed.
I don’t know if this is because my region is China.
I installed it from HACS, and then configuration- integration - add integration.
And I put my client ID and secret which I get from Mercedes Benz developer, also put my PIN from MB app.But after reboot HA,I still cannot find any devices or sensors or switch…
By the way, I can use MB mobile app to lock/unlock my car.
Is it because my region is China?
Very appreciate if someone can reply me…
many many thanks.
Hi Jenny,
the component MBAPI2020 does not support China currently. This is in the making but not working yet.
Take a look on this repo: GitHub - gnep88/mbapi2020: Custom Component to integrate MercedesME devices into Home-Assistant
The user has adopted the component for the Chinese market. (Use the europe region in the config flow)
Hint: You have to use your mb-email address not the client-id, keys. Check the readme again.
Hi Rene,
thanks for the hint regarding the VIN, hadn’t considered this and edited now.
The formatting solved the problem, now the pre-heating and -cooling is working, thank you very much.
Have you faced issues with using Siri voice commands for locking and unlocking the car?
Using the Apple Home app locking and unlocking works well, but when using the Siri voice command for it (still in the HomeKit environment) sometimes it seems to switch the functions (trying to lock when command was to unlock and vice versa).
Best regards
David Scheffler
Hi David,
I’m not using Siri so often, but will it try it in the next days… so no valid input from my side - maybe someone else has input.

Very Appreciate,
I’ll try it right now~
Hi Rene,
still no device or entities at all
I installed the integration you gave me ,selected Europe
1.install the integration
2.fill my mb-email address
3.fill pincode received by email
4.restart HA
Should I add any code into my configuration?
Hi @ReneNulschDE , @Giorgio_Ravera ,
So, I didn’t do any extra configuration. I installed HACS and added mbapi2020 integration, used my MB-login and that’s it. Lock/Unlock works from mbapi2020 on Homeassistant.
Then I added the Domains and Entities in HASS Bridge. But I can’t even see anything in Home app.
Hi,
did you try to set a correct country? I cannot remember in detail what I did when installing, but in fact I changed also the country code and the locale.
so for me its (configuration button for the integration)
Country Code: DE
Locale: de-DE
As far as I remember I also needed to change that. Furthermore have you enabled “new added entities” with the option menu? (three dots)
And make sure you connected your phone app with the car before. Not sure about your model and year of the car. But in my E Class I can see the Me symbol for my user on the screen. You can also check on the website of Mercedes if your account is linked to Mercedes Me.
EDIT: did you clean your browser chache as well?
Hi Jenny,
did you a restart of HA after the installation (P1)? I propose that you resetup the integration:
If this does not work, you can in get contact with the developer of this integration via an issue in my repo. The user Gnepp88 is reading the thread.
I have no access to any Chinese car and can’t help so much here. If you would like to share your car-data with me, send me a private message.

Is there a way to see if preconditioning schedule is active and when it’s planned to start?
I currently have a button in my dashboard to start preconditioning and a input_time to schedule it, but I’d like some way to confirm it’s scheduled.
Also would be nice to display this somehow.
The bottom 2 Tiles were for debugging purposes. If you want the big button on the right to correctly display preconditioning is running, you need to check both precondNow
(on if triggered by button) and precondActive
(on if triggered by timer).
Hi @DezeStijn,
currently this not available as a sensor or attribute. (but delivered from MB-side)
As the data structure for these weekly profiles is quite complex, I could do the following:
Would this help?

New release: v0.8.2 - Statistics, DepartureTime, Token Deletion
New Sensor:
DepartureTime - Shows the next planned Departure Time (relevant for Preheating)
Other Changes:
New release: v0.8.4 - Fix Config_flow
Bugfix:
I’ll check out v0.8.2 to see how it looks like now.
But wouldn’t make it more sense to expose e.g. a nextDeparture
sensor that provides the next (planned) departure time as yyyy-mm-ddThh:mm
(UTC or localised with timezone)? That can easily be parsed in HA using strptime()
into whatever data the user needs (data, time, weekday, …).
Hi All,
I was wondering if i could get some help with setting up charging Scheduling (by setting the max charging limit) via homeassistant and Mercedes Me integration for my EQA. Firstly, is it possible to do this through Mercedes me?
I’ve looked in to what is available and can see “maxSocLowerLimit: 50” … However, this doesn’t seem to be in line with the app. when i change the charge percentage in the app it doesn’t update here. I also wasn’t able to update the value. This is the first time i’ve ever tried to set the value of an entity (outside of the basics) via home assistant so i may be doing something wrong.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Asim
Hi Asim,
you can’t set the maxSocLowerLimit with this component currently. However the maxSoc can be configured with HA Service “MercedesME 2020: battery_max_soc_configure”
That’s exactly what i was looking for! Thanks
See Manage Mercedes EV battery charge target from Home Assistant :: Sequr for an example.
I have however noticed that mbapi2020.battery_max_soc_configure
won’t update the maxSocLowerLimit
attribute of sensor.licenseplate_state_of_charge
. So that part of my automation doesn’t fully function yet.
For some reason tankLevelAdBlue is not showing up as a sensor. All other info is visible. Any one can help me?
(and yes, my car has adblue)
