After updating Home Assistant, I cannot get this integration to work anymore.
I have tried to install going through ‘add integration’ but it throws an error message ‘Config flow could not be loaded’.
I have tried to re-build the custom components folder from the github files as I did before, no luck.
I have tried to delete the custom components folder, but even after I empty it, and it does not show any files, it won’t allow me to delete the ‘wallbox’ folder stating it is not empty.
Is there an issue? What do I try next?
From the log:
Error occurred loading configuration flow for integration wallbox: cannot import name ‘ELECTRICAL_CURRENT_AMPERE’ from ‘homeassistant.const’ (/usr/src/homeassistant/homeassistant/const.py)
1:14:33 PM – (ERROR) config_entries.py - message first occurred at 1:05:32 PM and shows up 2 times
Hi, they changed ELECTRICAL to ELECTRIC in the latest release of HA. If you go to my const.py file and change it there as well (so, everything that says ELECTRICAL_CURRENT_AMPERE, change to ELECTRIC_CURRENT_AMPERE) you should be set. I will try for a fix in the next few days.
If you still need to remove the folder, go in ssh, go to the specific folder and there you will find a “hidden” folder that you need to remove before deleting the wallboox folder.
Good day
I’m new here and I don’t know if I write that right.
I would like to ask if it would be possible to send me specific settings in node-red. We have an e-golf that I would like to charge from solar panels so I would like to have some guidance on how to set it up. Thank you
Hey - I am new to this integration (just installed my Wallbox Pulsar Plus last week) but I am not sure it’s working fine for me.
I installed it from the “integrations” menu, it only shows “Wallbox Portal” with no devices or anything.
I found 11 sensors scavenging in the “states” list but no switches, nothing.
Any tips on what I might be doing wrong? I must say that I haven’t charged the car yet.
Whoops, just figured the sensors are all there is in the “official” version. I am using the custom one now.
I was hoping to use it with the new energy dashboard but I see it can’t… that’s a bummer. Is it something planned for the future? Can we do something to help?
@sotoniak if you look into the “states” of “developer tools” you should also find a “lock” and a “switch” with the name of the wallbox portal. The lock should start the charge when the car is connected. The switch is to pause/unpause but in my experience it doesn’t work.
BTW, this is how I “solved” it instead:
If you don’t have HACS, you will need it. Install the OCPP (open charge point protocol) repository. The OCPP is supported by the Wallbox and you can configure it for your charger from the website.
The OCPP integration will give you a bunch of new switches/sensors, named .charger_, many not supported by the Wallbox but that’s irrelevant.
I found that the switch “switch.charger_charge_control” works perfectly to start/stop the charge. I don’t know why but probably due to better working API, being local, whereas the wallbox integration uses the wallbox website APIs to work).
I made an automation that starts the charge automatically when the car is connected (portal status: waiting_to_unlock) for more than 10 minutes and stops when is above > 80%.
If I want to charge to 100% I can simply start the charge manually.
Hi @hesselonline from what I see here in the topic this integration looks awesome. I’m awaiting my Mustang and have a Copper SB installed at home. I might be incapable but I can’t seem to get the integration working, when I try to login with my six digit serial number from the Copper SB and my emailadres and password used for the my.wallbox account I keeps rejecting me. Is there some kind of prefix needed for the SN which I’m missing? I set my Copper SB in OCPP mode via E-Flux because we have a prive energy bill but the car is bought as a company car (ZZP). Might that be a reason for not being able to connect in HA maybe?
Hi @TAGVL , I don’t know about your OCPP question, but if it works on the wallbox portal website, the integration should work as well. No magic tricks needed, just your serial (is 5 digits in my case, but that might be due to mine being an earlier model), username and password (same as wallbox portal login). Do you get an error?
I see some questions above regarding the HACS / Custom version vs. the integrated in HA version. In the latest release we added the number component to HA, so it now has number and sensor components there. I think I will add the lock next (easier functionally than the switch). BTW → If you are missing something in the official version (sensor or otherwise) you can also create an issue on the HA / core github.
Hi Hessel, in all cases I get an authentication error. Might it be due I initially created the account via gmail? With this account i’m ‘super beheerder’ and I created a profile for my wife as normal ‘gebruiker’. She logs in with email and manually created password to the my.wallbox enviroment and I login via Google but in both cases with the corresponding credentials I don’t get authenticated. Both accounts are less than a week old for the my.wallbox environment.
Hi Ted, Yes, I think that that must be the issue, I use regular accounts with a seperate password. Maybe try to create a new additional account that way? Please note that I learned from the Wallbox Support that some functionality doesn’t work if you use multiple accounts (no pause / lock in the webportal anymore until I deleted the second account).
I’ll check tomorrow by creating a new account. I can’t remove the wallbox and setup a complete new account and settings because I’ll loose the oppc settings I guess and that I don’t want. If it doesn’t work I assume the ocpp is the issue.
