    Open pilot / Comma AI

    Daniele, I have made a complete mess of my house with HomeAssistant (I love it) but everytime there is a glitch I get an earful, which is completely justified. I am going to have a go with Openpilot at some stage. The kit is about £1000 and the car harness will need to have the correct plugs...

    Open pilot / Comma AI

    It's not as bad as it seems, although it is bad! They have built programs to capture the signals (Cabana) the car sends - so they can be decoded and I think then mapped to the openpilot....Jason Young video In a perfect world, there would be a list of openpilot parameters required, and then...

    Open pilot / Comma AI

    I think it will work as a dashcam. But it powers down to prevent the battery from going flat, I believe, so it will not work like the Tesla systems.

    Open pilot / Comma AI

    Hi - I have done some work on the hardware configuration. Did you get anywhere with porting the car across, or did you realise like I did that unless you are a python programmer that this whole process is much more complex than just connecting the Comma X3 to the front facing camera. I am still...

    Open pilot / Comma AI

    Look up my other posts - I have made progress on the hardware requirements - but I am not a competent programer - so until we find someone who can port the car across we are a bit stuck. Reading the stuff in Discord etc Comma Ai and Openpilot could be quite straightforward for a competent python...

    Mg4 architecture

    I have done a bit of work on the hardware required, the wiring and the harness, where to get the connectors (male/female) - I am sort of ready for the plunge to buy a comma ai3 - but I am not a programmer and the reality is I will probably fail to get the system to work. BUT are you aware of...

    Clocks go forward charger

    I am on Octopus "economy 7" - that system uses UTC time and therefore I need to change the charge time on my car to 1:30-8:30am and I have to reset the Growatt battery charging as well. I do not know if you are using other tariffs if the same issue applies. If you have HomeAssistant - you can...

    First public charging - nervous?

    This is what I do when I do a long journey: 1) Set regen to minimum 2) Drive at 63mph on adaptive cruise control and enjoy the journey. Travelling faster massively reduces range and time saved travelling is lost recharging! 3) Research chargers and make a hard copy printout of their locations...

    Mg4 architecture

    This is the 16pin connector to the forward facing camera behind the rear view mirror. This is the connector that the -Y- harness connects to. So a male and female connector need to be wired to the harness to create the passthrough. The pinout I have previously posted. Is there anyone else, who...

    Open pilot / Comma AI

    This seems to be the Bosch connections pins 1.2.3.5.10.11. The MG4 wiring diagram shows just 2,3,10,11 and where they go. Anyone know if 1 and 5 are power and ground. If so then a harness that has the same wiring should work - or is that too simple?

    Mg4 architecture

    ISO 15765-4 CAN (SAE J2480) ISO 15765-4 CAN is available in vehicles that are built in 2008 or later in the US. Pins 4, 5, 6, 14, and 16 supports this protocol. OBD2 protocol consists of 4 variants. It works on a 2-wire communication method. It can handle up to 1 Mbps. Comma Ai harness...

    Mg4 architecture

    https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=comma+ai+port This is what I am thinking of doing, though $1250+$200 for hardware that I will not really understand how to make work will be a risk. With the wiring diagrams posted and the idea that the Bosch camera feeds the page 102 info, if the...

    Mg4 architecture

    are the signals on page 102 feeding pins 6 and 14 with 4 grd and 16 power. Would this be the wiring feed from the comma X3?

    Mg4 architecture

    I hope this is helpful, not stating the obvious. Openpilot is the software used by the Commai 3X (hardware). The hardware is $1250 +$200 for a harness. You stick the kit on the windscreen, centrally. You then bypass the front camera using the new hardware and that feeds the CAN connection under...

    Are electricians ripping us off?

    I did the calculations and decided that I can charge the car on the granny charger and be prepared for long journeys. You then use public chargers when you are more than 150mile from home anyway. So having a home charger costing £700 alone is not worth it. If I really need a charge I can use a...

    MG4 Software Update Thread

    I have mine booked in for Sept for some software updates - I was hoping it would be the fix for the LKA. If that gets sorted and the ACC works I would probably forget about comma ai3. It is impossible to use cruise control in town or villages, you have to keep your foot floating above the pedal...

    First long distance journey coming up - a few questions if anyone can help?

    I tested a few charging brands before my journey to check they worked. Top tip. Take lots of different bank, credit, debit cards with you. Out of all the payment methods I set up I only got my Santander card to work. No idea why, but it seems to work whenever I charge. Use card to start and stop...

    MG4 Windows dropping?

    I did remember the same problem - it happened to me, walk back to the car and be totally surprised the windows were all down...it stopped happening and i just put it down to my error, maybe there was something else causing it. I have never had my car in for a software update but it was delivered...

    MG4 Windows dropping?

    It's a problem I had and reported, it is simply catching your hand on the switches when you move to get out of the car. As soon as you are aware you are doing it - you stop doing it. It's one of those sub-conscious things
