Cable Status sensor is unreliable since last update

[flagshipenis]

I had based all of my charging automations off this sensor because it was the quickest to update and most reliable. Now this sensor can go an entire charging session without changing state from "unplugged" even if status is "charging" and it sais it is connected to the cloud

I agree the sensor is now unreliable, constantly changing it's status. Below is a screenshot of the sensor. The car is plugged in .

I will take a look and try to recreate, I've not seen this on my pod. Its coming into the school half term this week so it will be unlikely that I will be able to take a look until next week. Was there a certain time that it started happening? Did you restart your Home Assistant instance before seeing it?

Anything to help me re-create it would be awesome

Hi,

I have restarted home assistant a number of times and the problem continues. I am not sure how to recreate it.

Completely understand about half term. For me this issue has been on going for a while and not particularly problematic so not urgent.

Sorry I cannot be more helpful.

I need to clarify. The sensor also reports "plugged in" when there is actually no cable plugged in some times too. It is totally useless at this state. This started happening after the first update that made PSL status report "pending" and the other new states. I hope this helps

I also have this issue.

Another pod point with this issue. Mine in combination with a eCorsa, which only updates it's cable sensor when Stellantis can be arsed.
