Environment

Describe the bug

In the past (Oct 2023) I was able to start/stop the Auxiliary heater via control entity from this integration. At the moment I can´t find such an entity. Any chance to get this function back in a future version? Trunk & doors I am able to unlock via HA, but lock is not possible. I see a lot of sensor which works fine right know. ## Steps to Reproduce

Hi,

what is the status of this bug? Is there a chance to get this working again, or what exacley is the issue, why this is no longer available?available?

stickpin commented 7 months ago

@Spartacus68 Unfortunately I don't have much time lately to work on the integration. I'm planning to enable basic electric climatisation soon. Regarding the Auxiliary heater is a bit difficult for me to work on it, as I don't have any vehicle with an Auxiliary heater. If you are willing to share the credentials with me, so I can look at the implementation later on, you can send them me to (stickpins at gmail dot com), please share your phone number as well, so I will be able to sync with you via WhatsApp or Signal before doing any changes.

Hi stickpin,

yes, iI understand! I was only wondering due to the fact, that it works some time ago! Spartacus

stickpin commented 7 months ago

@Spartacus68 That's correct, the problem is that back in December last year, Volkswagen changed its backend which requires a lot of effort to reverse engineer and re-implement everything once again.

stickpin commented 7 months ago

Just so you know, I still don't have access to any vehicle with the Auxiliary heater. As a result, I cannot re-implement it. If somebody needs this feature, send me your credentials to (stickpins at gmail dot com) so that I can reverse-engineer the way it works now. Please share your phone number as well, so I will be able to sync with you via WhatsApp or Signal before making any changes.

Hi,

as already mentioned by email, I cannot share the credentials. However, I can help you find all the important information if you explain to me what I should do!

Unfortunately, such help is not useful for ongoing investigation and development.

Hi,

... I can even understand that it is difficult to provide effective support here, but unfortunately there is no other option, sorry!

I have great respect for people like you who sacrifice your free time and make your work available to the general public free of charge. I would like to thank you very much for that.

In my case, the credentials belongs to my company and I cannot disclose them. Please understand this as well! I can only refer once again to the Cupra integration, where the parking heater works perfectly. Nevertheless, thank you very much for your commitment.

@Spartacus68 No worries, don't take it personally, my comment was not addressed to you, but more a general comment for everyone who is waiting for this feature. :)

Hello I am new to home assistant and have just done my first installation and I have just installed your tool for Volkswagen vehicle I have an ID5 with auxiliary heating by heat pump in what I can help you so that I can trigger it and adjust your temperature?

stickpin commented 7 months ago

v4.5.5 is released with the Auxiliary heater control support.

michiii1337 commented 7 months ago

Thanks for the new release. I can not see the auxiliary heater switch

stickpin commented 7 months ago

@michiii1337 then I guess your auxiliary heater works differently. I had only one vehicle to develop and test with. If you want me to check why it's not working for you, share with me your credentials and I will check (stickpins at gmail dot com)

I send you a mail

silub80 commented 7 months ago

I can see the switch but only after renewing the volkswagen we connect integration manually and OS reboot. I have a Passat Diesel 2022.

Everythings works fine :) Thank you stickpin!

stickpin commented 7 months ago

@silub80 thanks for reporting back. The use case of @michiii1337 is different. I need to see how to cover it.
