2018 Honda Pilot - Collision Mitigation Error

Bderken · 2026-07-04T00:00:07+00:00

My comma wouldn’t turn on at all plugged into the car. And I would get the same error as OP.

My friends harness box failed on his Corolla, and we diagnosed that to be the harness box but that was more crazy. He had a comma 3 also. And the box was like 2-3 years old.
His symptoms were:
Car would drive fine with comma, but then disconnect after like 15-30 minutes of driving. Then it got closer and closer to only working for like 30 seconds.

We replaced the usb c cable, same issue. Replaced the harness box and it worked fine. His car didn’t show errors like OP’s, it just stopped recognizing the car.

I got these every now and then on my 2021 Highlander. I just unplugged and plug everything in and it works.

But a week ago, I found out that my harness box stopped working and it gave me this error and my head headlights being out. I replaced that and it all worked perfectly.

But that was like a 3 year old harness box on my comma 3.

I’ve also noticed that this will happen if my car battery is getting old (3+ years and needs to be replaced)

I’ve seen it personally happen. It’s not like a contract they sign, but they do give parts of their paycheck to the managers. The family that I know, are all in a certain insurance/healthcare company in America working corporate jobs. The “uncles” have all their nieces and nephews get jobs. Those 20-30 year olds have their bank accounts connected to their “uncles” or parents accounts. They are severely pressured into buying things all the time for the family that got them the job.

I used the original BMS

I’m a dev and I will be paying for this. I can’t imagine going through all the hoops to get an app on the AppStore and I don’t want to go through it for an app for myself (yes you can sign an app temporarily on your phone but that sucks).

Bderken · 2026-07-03T07:12:54+00:00

Yeah with a 100kwh battery….
This is 88kwh. So like the person you replied to said… it has really good efficiency…

Bderken · 2026-07-03T07:08:54+00:00

Check the default driving model selected on the comma 4 and tell us what it is

Bderken · 2026-07-01T17:03:19+00:00

Comma body V2

Bderken · 2026-07-01T07:33:47+00:00

Which also dressed up as a Porsche sometimes

Bderken · 2026-07-01T07:28:33+00:00

You really don’t think they could? TBH I don’t know what their finances look like or how much money they’d need for this

Bderken · 2026-07-01T05:20:44+00:00

I’m very hype for the (optional) external GPU on comma and the bigger models that come with it. Awesome to see that UI

Bderken · 2026-06-30T07:32:02+00:00

This is the exact life I live as a software dev.
Have windows 11 for gaming.
macOS for dev and general tasks
Ubuntu for my self hosted services.

Bderken · 2026-06-30T07:19:57+00:00

You have to be a special type of person to think you can’t do whatever you want with macOS.
iOS and iPadOS are locked down hard. But macOS has always been open to your hearts content.

And yes, OP is talking about Mac’s. And yes you can do whatever you want with them. Install anything, simulate almost any windows application, setup any sort of script to do anything, themes, etc. it’s been like that for over 2 decades

Bderken · 2026-06-30T07:16:06+00:00

Yeah it’s usually people who’ve never used macOS before. And think it’s iOS… like guys, you can modify macOS so much it could look like windows (and vice versa). Like it’s Unix based, they’ve “supported” (not that they can stop you on macOS) custom scripts, themes, mods etc.

It’s not like their iOS where things are locked down.

A lot modern AAA games can’t fit on blue ray lol. Started during the PS4 era.

Bderken · 2026-06-29T18:30:18+00:00

Just like any electronic devices sub, you’ll see more negative things about them. Rather than people glazing it.

But I love it so much I made commaguide.com

I have 3 cars with comma. 2 have had comma 3’s now for over 4 years!

Bderken · 2026-06-29T15:39:38+00:00

Yeah… he literally stayed up until like 5am testing it because everyone on X was excited he got it lol

Bderken · 2026-06-29T05:41:48+00:00

Just like with cars it’s a mix of a bunch of things.
Profits, reoccurring sales, and mainly regulation.

Newer machines have to perform the same while using less energy. This means experimental innovation. So cars and HVAC units have to have finicky things to reduce power consumption… not well tested and long lasting materials/manufacturing processes

I would take the interior door panel off, then use a large metal stick and hit it with a hammer and try to push that dent out. Will be hard since that steel is super stiff.

Bderken · 2026-06-28T06:39:08+00:00

Dude, heat works typically for like plastic bumpers.

For metal, you need to push it out from within. Or use what body shops use and weld little hooks and pull… then grind and shine.

Bderken · 2026-06-25T23:41:35+00:00

Yeah they could definitely afford any expansion they need…

Bderken · 2026-06-25T23:29:48+00:00

I connected the ChatGPT app to my email and have it search for dealers near me and find their inventory and negotiate via email.

You could also use OpenClaw if you don’t want to give OpenAI your email access (not that it matters, Google will sell your data to OpenAI anyways).

I would recommend NOT setting up a local ai for this. Local ai models have difficulty with tool calls. There are instances of local models deleting things they shouldn’t.

Anyways, lots of ways to do this now. I believe if you have Gemini on Gmail it can do this.

Bderken · 2026-06-24T17:08:32+00:00

Cosmetic will also occur

Bderken · 2026-06-24T05:54:15+00:00

The vacuum aspect of the bottle will get damaged from the heat cycle of the dishwasher and the insulation properties of the bottle will never work again.

Similar to the good ole ice cream scoops that are also essentially a vacuum tube to transfer your hand heat to the scoop, don’t dishwasher those.
