Warning
There is a new token obtaining system.
The token used by this integration is currently removed whenever the integration is updated. With this 1.70 update, the token will be wiped during every update, requiring users to manually add the token during the initial setup.
To prevent this issue, we will be moving the token file outside of the FordPass directory. This change will ensure that the token is preserved during updates. This will require reconfiguration of your setup. Please see the Installation section, or the Wiki for help.
Please be aware that there seems to be constant issues with the API and reports of accounts being locked out again.
It is recommended to avoid over using these Home Assistant switches and periodically use the official FordPass app.
If you have any questions or concerns, please either open a new issue or comment on an existing issue related to yours.
Keep in mind that we are not available to help with every issue in a timely manner. We will do our best to help where we can.

Use HACS to add this repository as a custom repo.
Upon installation navigate to your integrations, and follow the configuration options. You will need to provide:
- Fordpass Email
- Region (Where you are based, required for tokens to work correctly)
You will then be prompted with Setup Token
Follow the instructions on the Wiki to obtain your token
Your car must have the lastest onboard modem functionality and have registered/authorised the fordpass application
I have added a service to poll the car for updates, due to the battery drain I have left this up to you to set the interval. The service to be called is "refresh_status" and can be accessed in home assistant using "fordpas.refresh_status".
Optionally you can add the "vin" parameter followed by your VIN number to only refresh one vehicle. By default this service will refresh all registered cars in HA.
This will take up to 5 mins to update from the car once the service has been run
If you are experiencing any sign in issues, please trying clearing your tokens using the "clear_tokens" service call.
This service allows you to manually refresh/poll the API without waiting the set poll interval. Handy if you need quicker updates e.g. when driving for gps coordinates
