IT’S SO EASY.
To determine whether to use ME or I—
Just drop the first part of the sentence to determine the best pronoun for the second part of the sentence.
“You and I are going to be late.” = “I am going to be late.” (not, “Me is going to be late.”)
“You and I walked along the road.” = “I walked along the road.” (not, “Me walked along the road.”)
“You and I watched the dancers on stage.” = “I watched the dancers on the stage.” (not, “Me watched the dancers on the stage.”)
“You and I liked them.” = “I liked them.” (not, “Me liked them.”)
“ME” would never be used in the ending part of the original sentences.
“Harold watched you and me.” = “Harold watched me.” (not, “Harold watched I.”)
“They sent you and me a package.” = “They sent a package to me.” (not, “They sent I a package.”)
“The sun was shining on you and me.” = “The sun was shining on me.” (not, “The sun was shining on I.”)
“The kids gave the books to you and me.” = “The kids gave the books to me.” (not, “The kids gave the books to I.”)
“I” would never be used in the ending part of the original sentence.
Should say that “ME” should not be used as the 2nd pronoun in the first examples.
And “I” should not be used as the 2nd pronoun in the second examples.

“You and I are going to be late.” = “I am going to be late.” (not, “Me is going to be late.”)Did you mean to say that "ME" would never be used in the beginning part of the original sentences?“You and I walked along the road.” = “I walked along the road.” (not, “Me walked along the road.”)
“You and I watched the dancers on stage.” = “I watched the dancers on the stage.” (not, “Me watched the dancers on the stage.”)
“You and I liked them.” = “I liked them.” (not, “Me liked them.”)
“ME” would never be used in the ending part of the original sentences.
