    Lucid Nexus: a free 3D Home Assistant dashboard that mirrors your car (Gravity, Air, Sapphire)

    This does not ever directly query the car. It talks to the Lucid cloud servers and gets the latest info from there. If the car is asleep, it keeps reporting the same obsolete info until the car reconnects. The Lucid Nexus card does not query anything itself, but it is built on top of the...

    Home Assistant Automations

    Yes, I updated to 2026.10.0 yesterday, and the Lucid integration no longer loads.

    Home Assistant Automations

    To hopefully save some people some pain, don't update Home Assistant Core until the Lucid support gets updated. This core update breaks things again.

    Thinkware Dashcam

    It could be that everything run on that fuse panel are non-critical accessories, and it draws power from the wunderbox down-converting the main batteries, rather than directly off the 12V batteries that likely only power critical management systems.

    UX 3.0 Feature Wishlists

    That's just plain not true. Joe, do you not understand what we are talking about? For about the first year I owned my Air, on the left side of the cockpit where I currently have mine configured to show miles since last charged, it also displayed the driving efficiency in mi/kwh. There was a...

    UX 3.0 Update

    You're usually the voice of reason here, but that just makes no sense. My iPhone only has one GPS, but I can have a dozen apps on it all using that GPS at the same time. It's just a data source, not an exclusive feed that can't be read by multiple apps. I have long been frustrated that the...

    How to switch audio sources in Air U/X 3.0?

    I'm well aware of that. While trying to fix my audio problems, I rebooted both the car and my phone. At this point, the only reliable way I have found to have Audible on my phone play an audiobook is through bluetooth. If I do it through CarPlay, it always goes silent. And the same thing...

    3.0 on Air

    I am not a fan of the new larger CarPlay window. I frequently use Waze, and now the next turn is hidden behind my right hand and the steering wheel. I have to remove my hand from the wheel to see the next turn. It just doesn't feel safe to keep doing that.

    How to switch audio sources in Air U/X 3.0?

    That does work. But as a retired U/X designer, the 3.0 interface is haphazard and confusing. Other than finally being able to display nav and music at the same time, I'm really not impressed.

    How to switch audio sources in Air U/X 3.0?

    Pressing the carplay button closes the carplay window, yes. But that doesn't change the audio source, which still says it is carplay and does not present the option to choose anything else. The only way I could figure out around that was to disconnect my phone entirely.

    How to switch audio sources in Air U/X 3.0?

    So I took the 2.11 update today, with very mixed results. Audio keeps crapping out in Apple CarPlay. When that happens, I'd like to just switch to another source such as SiriusXM. But once CarPlay has used audio, it doesn't seem to be possible to choose another source. When I click the music...

    Embarrassed Lucid praise moment

    For those of you assuming that this a phone-as-key problem that could be solved the carrying the fob: I have always carried the fob, and I still regularly get locked out. About once a year I try using just my phone, and find it less reliable so go back to the fob. For this reason alone, I...

    Bear logo on the driver side fender

    It's 5 1/2 inches wide. I made a bear facing right for the passenger side of my car.

    Multiple error messages, car unresponsive

    If the car thinks the frunk might be open, it won't let you shift into drive. Try pressing firmly on the front edge of the frunk lid to see if you can reseat the latch, which might resolve that problem. Another symptom of out-of-alignment frunk latches is a clicking noise from that latch which...

    Lucid Air Lost all cameras, none of the soft and hard resets work

    Just to followup on my camera problem. The Natick service center found that the front wiring harness had corrosion and had to be replaced. Apparently that was causing the cameras not to work. Interestingly, last year the light behind the Lucid logo on the front bezel quit working and they...
