[QUESTION] How to set temperature remotely

Closed this issue 5 months ago · 6 comments

👋 First of all, thanks for this awesome addon for HA. I've set it up last night and it's working 👌 .

Now the question, how can I set the remote temperature when enabling remote heating? I have a MG4 and the climate.XXX_vehicle_climate only allows me to turn it off or auto.

I'm using the python gateway v0.5.15 with HA 2024.2.5.

Thank you.

Hi, same problem? Issue 48

Yeah, it looks like it.

So IIUC, the fix is to set the temperature separately, then restart the gateway and turn the climate to auto?

Publish a Temperature to: saic//vehicles//climate/remoteTemperature with Mqtt and it should work after a restart.

Ok, I will give it a go.

I was under the impression that this should work automatically in 0.5.15 but something is missing probably.

Yeah sorry, it had been fixed in the 0.6.x version which is in pre-release.

Feel free to try that version, but be aware that there may be regressions

@nanomad Thanks and no worries! I'm going to give the prerelease a try during the weekend.
I will close this ticket for now.
