Connectedcars.io (Min Volkswagen)

The Connectedcars.io (Min Volkswagen) component is a Home Assistant custom component for showing car information for Danish Volkswagens equipped with the hardware to send data to the mobile app "Min Volkswagen". Min Skoda, Min Seat and Mit Audi all use the same backend and should work as well, although still not tested.

State and attributes

A device is created for each car. For each car the following sensors can be created, but only when data is present. Thus fuel based cars should have fuel level sensors, while EVs should have battery sensors.

The naming scheme is {brand} {model} <name>.
Sensor names:

• BatteryVoltage (12V battery)
• EVHVBattTemp (EV)
• EVchargePercentage (EV)
• fuelLevel
• fuelPercentage
• GeoLocation
• Health
• Ignition
• Lamp +name (one sensor per each reported lamp, disabled by default)
• NextServicePredicted (disabled by default)
• odometer
• outdoorTemperature
• Speed

Debugging

It is possible to debug log the raw response from the API. This is done by setting up logging like below in configuration.yaml in Home Assistant. It is also possible to set the log level through a service call in UI.

logger: 
  default: info
  logs: 
    custom_components.connectedcars_io: debug
