Yep, figured that out while testing different PINs. Do you know how can I add a light instead of switch here?
I think newest HA update let you change swtich to light entity manually.

I have 2 gang switch and only 1 LED (left one) shows status when relay is on. Right LED does not show status when LED is on, anyone got same problem?

Hey, Have you figured this out? I have the same issue. I play around a bit with the gpios but no luck, just realized that the Right led works when pinning the relay to 22 instead of 19, but then the relay doesnt. 
nothing yet
hi! somebody managed out something with the right led ? thanks
You need to create a gpio output with the pin number for each relay.
output:
- platform: gpio
id: relay_1
pin: 23
Then instead of a switch, create a light changing the platform to binary and linking it to the corresponding output.
light:
- platform: binary
id: switch_1
name: "Light 1"
output: relay_1
For the phisical buttons to work, just change the on_press method from switch.toggle to light.toggle and put the corresponding light id.
binary_sensor:
- platform: gpio
id: left_button
name: "kitchen left button"
pin:
number: 4
mode: INPUT_PULLUP
on_press:
- light.toggle: switch_1
I’ll link you my full config:
I have made some progress on the 2nd LED for the 2 button switch. The second Switch LED is controlled by pin 22. I have created a virtual relay_4 tied to this pin and set it to toggle when pressing button 2. This works great on the physical switch (led goes on and off as expected) but doesnt work when triggering through HA. (switch goes on and off, but LED doesn’t) Here is my yaml, appreciate any ideas on this. (I have seen elsewhere that this could be done as a rule in HA? Not sure how to do that…
switch:
- platform: gpio
id: relay_1
name: "Left Button"
pin: 23
- platform: gpio
id: relay_2

- platform: status_led

Thanks, your solution save my day!
Good evening Simon,
Thanks to you as well as some guys over on github working the Tasmota side of things, I’ve put together a solution that solves your issues with the LED working only when actually pressing the button.
Thread is here: Sonoff SwitchMan M5 Ledlink_i · Discussion #15757 · arendst/Tasmota · GitHub
Bottom comment you may have to click “show more”. The 1 gang is there but 2 gang should be easy to put together. Let me know if you need it directly and I will post here.
Thanks for the pin number (22).
In my opinion more elegant way to sync led with relay is to use power_supply (see buttom) in output (last line):
binary_sensor:
- platform: gpio
pin:
number: GPIO4
mode: INPUT_PULLUP
id: ${hostname}_switch_1
on_press:
then:
- light.toggle:
id: ${hostname}_light_1
- platform: gpio
pin:
number: GPIO15
mode: INPUT_PULLUP
id: ${hostname}_switch_2
on_press:
then:
- light.toggle:
id: ${hostname}_light_2
output:
- platform: gpio
pin: GPIO23
id: ${hostname}_relay_1
- platform: gpio
pin: GPIO19
id: ${hostname}_relay_2
power_supply: ${hostname}_led_2
light:
- platform: binary
name: "${name_1}"
id: ${hostname}_light_1
output: ${hostname}_relay_1
- platform: binary
name: "${name_2}"
id: ${hostname}_light_2
output: ${hostname}_relay_2
power_supply:
- id: ${hostname}_led_2
enable_time: 0s
keep_on_time: 0s

Thanks for sharing this, it worked for me.
Any idea how to implement with 1 button? I do not get the LED when turning on the light.
Hi, I would like to use my Sonoff Switchman M5 as a smart switch for the yeelight lamp and not as a power cutter. Installed esphome, configuration as below, I searched the entire forum and google, however, I did not find any relevant clues on this topic.

what am i doing wrong, triggering gpio 22 changes RIGHT led for me, not the left one
- #18 - controls both leds
- #relay 1 [23] - linked to left LED!
- #18 off, 22 on = right only (when relay1 is off)
- #22 controls right one
- #18 controls both, but relay 1 on = only left on
No way to have ONLY left led on without latching the relay
I thought I would share my config for my 3C switches. Feel free to use it or parts of it if you want (I spent way too much time coming up with this, so other people using it only feels right)
Features and comments:
- PWM on both the red leds (when the relay is off) and the blue LED. This meant i opted not to have the blue led as a status led (you can opt the other way around with minimal changes, though)
- Events for single click, double click and long press
- Upon double click, the blue led flashes once to give some immediate feedback. Upon a long press, it flashes twice.
- To make sure that the single click wouldn’t also trigger for a double click, I built in a delay before triggering the single click. I went with 200ms after trying some values, as it was both something I would even trust guests with, and while it was noticeable when paying attention, it wasn’t bothersome to me in normal usage. You could make the delay shorter, but I wouldn’t recommend going below 100ms

The LH Red LED is connected directly to the relay switch, so it should act correctly. For some reason the RH Red LED is activated separately ( pin 22)
This is my config and it works as it should.
switch:
- platform: gpio
id: relay_1
name: "light 1"
pin: 23
- platform: gpio
id: relay_2
pin: 19

id: pwm_output
light:

- platform: status_led

Thanks for this, i’m using it for my switch with some basic modifications.
I have a bit of trouble figuring out the best way to implement double click and long press into Home Assistant.
I’d like to have LB double click, LB long press, RB double click, RB long press buttons exposed to HA so i can use the buttons to toggle other lights or automations in my house.
The configuration I provided does all that. It sends events in all these cases. You just need to set up your automations to listen for the right events. The events are esphome.switch_click, esphome.switch_double_click and esphome.switch_long_press. The data of the event will include which switch it is from and which button was used.
So, for example, you could listen to the esphome.switch_long_press event with data of:
device: switch-1
button: left
And your automation will only happen when the left button of switch-1 is long pressed.

Based on Jasper123 great script the events of the long_press, double etc can be placed in a automation. For me it was not clear how to trap these events but I finally understood his comments.
Here is screenshot of how it listen to these events.
Hope that helps somebody else.
I somehow prefer to code actions directly in ESPHOME setup rather than firing events to HA and then reacting over there, i.e.
- timing: #short
- ON for at most 1s
- OFF for at least 0.05s
then:
- if:
condition:
api.connected:
then:
- homeassistant.service:
service: light.toggle
data:
entity_id: light.table_lamp
else:
- http_request.post: "http://192.168.10.77/light/table_lamp/toggle"
btw,the condition is to go directly to Esphome device if HA is unavailable (fallback option, HA way reacts way faster)
