I can see the AUX in Homebridge, i can change setpoint value with node red, can activate it. But the AC itself does nothing. Perhaps the firmware of the WIFI?

Thanks in advance.

Hello, did you find any solution for this? I have the same firmware version

Look at: https://github.com/makleso6/homebridge-broadlink-heater-cooler

It says: 🔴some air conditioners may not work with this plugin due to firmware incompatibility

The only way is to control it is a diy: https://github.com/GrKoR/esphome_aux_ac_component/blob/master/README-EN.md

I was unable to downgrade firnware

How to debug my AC? Do you have any idea? Is it via wireshark to capture and adjust the project settings? https://github.com/makleso6/broadlink-aircon-api/tree/master
