Timer entity automation

Configuration
1

On my LG ThinQ I have a washer and dryer. I want it to trigger an automation when the cycle is complete. What I want is when the “time remaining” goes to 0:00:00 the event would trigger. This is what I have and it didn’t do anything.

Ideally, I want it to say if it changes from any value above 0:00:00 to 0:00:00 then the even would trigger.

alias: Washing Machine Finished
description: ''
trigger:
  - platform: state
    entity_id: sensor.front_load_washer_remaining_time
    from: '0:00:01'
    to: '0:00:00'
condition: []
action:
  - type: turn_on
    device_id: f9f8472b461493729a8945c6d168e6b1
    entity_id: switch.appliance_laundry_room_control
    domain: switch
  - delay:
      hours: 0
      minutes: 0
      seconds: 1
      milliseconds: 0
  - type: turn_off
    device_id: f9f8472b461493729a8945c6d168e6b1
    entity_id: switch.appliance_laundry_room_control
    domain: switch
mode: single

Remove the from: in your trigger. This will trigger on any value changing to 0:00:00.

trigger:
  - platform: state
    entity_id: sensor.front_load_washer_remaining_time
    to: '0:00:00'

Also what’s up with your post topic?

This has nothing to do with installation of NR.
