Facing frequent glitches in my Comet's HVAC & infotainment system

The technology in the car runs worse than a beta product!

BHPian herculesksp recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

Of late I've been facing a lot of glitches with the HVAC and ICE.

Frequently the A/C just turns off. Not just the A/C, it turns off the blower as well. Very weird. The LED on the left-most knobs turns off when this happens and I have to press it again to start both the A/C and the blower.

Previously, I thought a bad bump on the road was causing this, but recently it has happened a few times on smooth patches as well.

The ICE too is totally buggy. Very frequently, it just goes into the dialler screen, or the CarPlay music turns off and the radio turns on. There was one time it just didn't turn on and stayed blank. I had to get out of the car, turn the car off (lock), and then unlocked and got back in for it to start working. Today the Apple CarPlay feature froze and glitched.

  2. Can't unpair device
