This looks great, getting my car next week and will dig out a old Raspberry Pi to have a go with ![]()
After running this a few months here are some conclusions. It seems to stop working from time to time. Havent figured out what it is but it seems to be related to the script. Restarting the script seems to solve it 9/10 times. Maybe the easiest solution is to have a PoE-powered Pi that i can reboot easy. It’s an old car and a workaround for that ![]()
I’m running HA as HAOS on a 64-bit micro PC. As I’m using LAN, the Wi-Fi adapter is unused.
Would there be a way to connect to my PHEV with that and get this working all on the same device?
I have checked in HA and the car Wi-Fi is visible.
Just checking do you need the Mitsubishi app subscription for this to work? Or is this a way to bypass the subscription?
@buxtronix would you be able to offer some advice on getting this working in HAOS on a Intel micro-PC? Ethernet is used for its network connection, so the Wi-Fi could be used to talk to the car ![]()
this is a way to bypass the app.
Ah i believe this wont work for me as i have the 2025 PHEV which uses myConnect not remote control app. As far as im aware there is no wifi AP on my version of the vehicle, although it can connect to wifi. Not sure how myConnect works but assume its cellular.
sorry, could you explain more?
The 2025 PHEV does not use the remote connect app. It uses another one. As far as i can see my vehicle does not work with this integration. My car does not have its own wifi hotspot. I can connect to my home wifi but the car itself does not have an access point for me to connect to.
So question. I have a 2018 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV. I setup a vm on my unraid with ubuntu server 24.04 did all the install steps, but im a bit confused on how to link it. i have already setup the mitsubishi motors app called Remote Ctrl and i got the ssid: REMOTE34keuz and my password: mysetpassword. Inside my network config i have a static ip for my lan cable and a 2.4ghz wifi card installed passthroughed the vm with the ssid of the car and my password for the car ap. But everytime i run the script it cant verify. i keep getting a waiting after running the command
Am i doing something wrong before i run this command though in my vm on my network. I do the following to put it in pairing mode
- opening the drivers side door closing it
- closing the door.
- turning the car in accesary
- press lock and unlock alternating x5 each a total of 10 until i hear the beep once for 1 device connected ie my phone
- then start the command on ubuntu to register
am i doing any steps wrong any guidence would be greatly appreciated im link losing my mind trying to get this to work
Network configuration
I reset my cars connection and then i paired my phone. Use same mac-adress on your wifi and then it works with the same ip assigned, 192.168.8.47. Didnt get a separate connection working.
So I tried my wifis Mac address for my phone and the Mac address in my phone’s settings and no luck for either. Is something wrong with my setup of the wifi networking. It keeps saying connection times out.
Just installed this on a Pi Zero 2w and connected it to my 2015 Outlander PHEV.
After some initial issues with the pi (probably a dodgy sd-card), it works great!
Thanks @buxtronix for the awesome work on this!
any tips on getting it working?
This is the best project in Home Assistant in years! I was so disappointed with the “remote control” for my 2024 Eclipse Cross until I came across this post. Thank you so much for this!
i wish there was a way to get this working voor a noob like me.
i have a pie but dont know how to get this working for my eclipse cross 2024
Thank you, I really like it.
One question: Is it possible to set cancelchargetimer on to stop charging?
It seems that it is only possible to set it to off for start charging.
Thanks.
I solved the same problem by using a smart circuit breaker (Zigbee with electricity meter, but this is only for electricians!).
Would you recommend this board for this purpose? In which case I will order one.
What capacity SD card did you use?
What’s the minimum Raspberry Pi model and spec required to get this working?
Does it need LAN and Wi-Fi?
Can you alter/restrict the charge speed via the integration? Such as the amps it can pull to charge, so I could integrate it with excess Solar being produced.
