[REQ] HVAC status toggle
Closed this issue · 1 comments
Is your feature request related to a problem?
- Yes
Please describe the problem
I've found that I can turn on the remote climate (ie, turn on A/C when vehicle is locked and empty) in a couple of ways:
- pressing the provided "Air Conditioning" button
- running the "Start AC" action (passing VIN as data)
I can also see that the provided HVAC Status
sensor shows that the A/C is on when I do this.
I find it confusing that the "Air Conditioning" button/sensor allows turning on remote A/C but doesn't show the status correctly.
Describe the solution you'd like
What I would like to see:
- the
Air Conditioning
sensor shows as being on when A/C is remotely turned on (since I can use this sensor's button to turn on remote A/C) - the toggle behaviour of the HVAC Status sensor turns on/off the A/C (currently, I see
Action binary_sensor.turn_on not found
) if I set the tile's interaction totoggle
- successfully turning on/off the A/C triggering an update of the HVAC and A/C sensor values, so I know if it's worked or not

Hi @brettmc
Thanks for the feedback and suggestions.
Let me have a look into that and see what I might be able to do. That's a part that I had in mind to revise, because the initial deployment only had the HVAC status and the start AC (blowing) options. I after added the climate commands and ) may have mixed somethings.
I've also found an issue with the Rear Window Heating button, which I want to convert to a switch as well (with status feedback) and was planning to revise both those things.
It may take me a while to have some time to look into it, but I will include it on my roadmap for sure 👍
Cheers
