Locate the authorization switch<\/h2>\r\n<p>Look for the <code>card authorization required<\/code> switch for your Go-e wallbox. This switch is provided by the HACS integration to configure the charging station&#8217;s authorization settings and enable charging without the app.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2>5. Control charging via the switch<\/h2>\r\n<p>Unlocking and starting the charge is handled through this switch: As soon as your vehicle is plugged in, set <code>card authorization required<\/code> to <code>off<\/code> to enable charging. Switching it back to <code>on<\/code> secures the station against unauthorized use again.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2>Does it work?<\/h2>\r\n<p>Plug the charging cable into your vehicle. In Home Assistant, turn off the <code>card authorization required<\/code> switch on your wallbox. The Go-e Gemini will initiate charging without requiring you to tap the blue authorization button in the Go-e app.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<h2>Troubleshooting<\/h2>\r\n<ul>\r\n  <li><strong>Charging does not start despite Force State &#8220;On&#8221;:<\/strong> When the wallbox is awaiting authorization, it ignores standard charge commands. You must disable the card lock via <code>card authorization required<\/code>.<\/li>\r\n  <li><strong>Entity not found:<\/strong> Standard MQTT auto-discovery does not create this switch. Check whether the HACS integration <code>syssi\/homeassistant-goecharger-mqtt<\/code> is properly installed and loaded.<\/li>\r\n  <li><strong>No connection over MQTT:<\/strong> Check the connection settings in your MQTT configuration.<\/li>\r\n  <li><strong>Entity remains unavailable:<\/strong> Restart Home Assistant and verify that the MQTT integration is active.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p><em>Sources: <a href=\"https:\/\/community.simon42.com\/t\/go-e-gemini-und-homeassistant\/77256\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Forum: Simon42 &#8211; Forum<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/smarthome-assistant.info\/wallbox-home-assistant-einbinden\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">smarthome-assistant.info<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/community.simon42.com\/t\/go-e-gemini-und-homeassistant\/77256\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">community.simon42.com<\/a><\/em><\/p><div id=\"netgu-3094203037\" class=\"netgu-after-content netgu-entity-placement\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-6258556257245998\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-6258556257245998\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"4559785002\" \ndata-ad-format=\"auto\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Is your Go-e Gemini wallbox installed outdoors and requiring authorization?
