comma is amazing. Great company!
One of the wires got pulled out of my Ford harness. It came out of the connector and I was about two months out of warranty and they still shipped a new harness free!

I have a wire that sheared off right at the crimp on this connector. The metal terminal is still stuck inside the housing. This is for an automotive application, so it deals with a lot of vibration.
The Problem:
The brown wire appears to have been cut slightly too short during manufacturing, putting it under constant tension compared to the other wires in the bundle. This tension likely caused it to fatigue and snap right at the back of the pin.
Technical Goals:
• Identify the pin/connector: I’d like to identify the terminal type so I can buy a replacement and crimp it properly.
• Address the length: Since the wire is too short, I plan to solder an extension (pigtail) to it before re-seating it to remove the tension.

Ran into a hardware issue today with my Comma 3X setup on my 2023 Ford F-150 Lightning XLT.
As you can see in the photo, the brown wire has sheared off completely right at the terminal. The metal crimp/pin is still lodged inside the white connector housing. I’ve been using this since January, so I’m past the 30-day warranty, but I’ve emailed support just in case.
In the meantime, I’m looking to repair this myself so I can get back to using sunnypilot/openpilot for my commute.
Questions for the DIY/Hardware experts:
I was watching the latest episode and caught the moment where Carlos mentioned he doesn’t believe in God. Bobby’s immediate response was, “You’re a piece of shit.”
I know Bobby is a comedian and leans into hyperbole for the bit, but it got me thinking about a massive double standard. Imagine the absolute meltdown people would have if someone said, “I believe in God,” and the response from someone was, “You’re a piece of shit.”
It feels like religion often gets a "free pass" to be judgmental. We’re told religion is supposed to make people better, but from what I see, it usually just creates a "clubhouse mentality." It gives people a self-assigned moral high ground to look down on anyone who doesn't share their specific worldview.
In my opinion, religion doesn't actually make people "good"—it just gives them a framework to justify being bad to "outsiders."
