[EU] Unable to set rear window/side mirror and steering wheel heating
See original GitHub issueDescribe the bug
When calling start()
for climate control in the EU, it doesn’t appear to be possible to activate rear window (and side mirror) heating, or the steering wheel heating. The documentation is incorrect and doesn’t match the implementation, but coding according to the implementation doesn’t work either.
Usefull info(please complete the following information):
- OS: N/A
- Bluelinky Version: v7.1.0
- Region: EU
Additional context I’m testing on my own vehicle, a Hyundai Kona EV (2021).
It’s worth noting also that the current implementation specifies defrost
which maps to defrost
, and windscreenHeating
which maps to heating1
, but in the Blue Link app, ‘Defrost’ is identified by a windscreen heating symbol. windscreenHeating
is probably not the correct term to use for heating1
, but I don’t know this for sure (and it doesn’t work for me anyway).

Yep, that worked. I had tried this before without the
unit
parameter and I think that’s what stopped it from working. Strangely, air con switched on without passing temperature, which is why I was confused and thoughtairCtrl
was working for me.So it looks like the real issue is that the documentation is not correct for EU regions (or that the implementation is different for the EU region than the US and Canada regions).
Yeah, I release think we need to standardize the inputs across all regions so there is no more bad documentation or guesswork.
Let’s make that a stretch goal for 8.x release, going to close this issue as a solution was found.
