I have a RPI4 with the HA operating system.
I had a fan to control the temperature of the CPU using CPU temperature reading and making a kind of PWM control with HA, just followed this link
Since GPIO is no longer available, I placed the fan connected to 5V pins and it is working 24/7.
I just started to read about remote_rpi_gpio, and start wondering if I can use it to control my RPI4 GPIO pointing the IP address to localhost.
I’ved to follow the configuration guide and I had no sucess, I need further reading and trying.
Did anyone used remote_rpi_gpio to replace old GPIO control?

Plenty of people are using remote_gpio successfully.
If you want to control a CPU fan with this, create a GPIO switch and then create a generic thermostat to control the fan gpio switch.
Hi,
This is already what I have and is not working anymore due since RPI_GPIO was removed since Home Assistant Core 2022.6 . I noticed that remote_rpi_gpio is developed from RPI_gpio, so I’m wondering if this will work.
I made some trials with no sucess.
So, I found myself a easy solution after looking into several entries in this forum.
I have installed HACS and I’m using RPI_GPIO integration same as before.
