Switch automation with binary sensor

ESPHome
1

I am trying to make automation in ESPhome but I can’t get it working. I need 2 switches and a binary sensor. If I turn on switch1 and the binary sensor is off i need to turn on switch 2 for 1s and then turn it off. I tried with script and with custom component but I cannot get timers and MQTT to work with the custom component so I just give up on that option. Can anyone help with that? I use Arduino IDE usually but I need this in esphome now.

I found why my automations wasn’t working. I used binary sensor but pin isn’t going to 3.3V which I forgot and I will change it to adc and it will work.


switch:
  - platform: gpio
    pin: 15
    name: "PC2"
    id: pc2
    on_turn_on:
      then:
        if:
            condition:
              binary_sensor.is_on: pcstate
            then:
              - logger.log: "Done"
            else:
                if:
                  condition:
                    binary_sensor.is_off: pcstate
                  then:
                    - switch.turn_on: pc1
                    - delay: 1s
                    - switch.turn_off: pc1
    on_turn_off:
      then:
        if:
            condition:
              binary_sensor.is_on: pcstate
            then:
              - switch.turn_on: pc1
              - delay: 1s
              - switch.turn_off: pc1
            
  - platform: gpio
