Sort of.

The electronics that do the communicating could sense the lack of antenna as a fault, then indicate to other devices in the vehicle that fault. This could potentially cause the vehicle to light it's fault indicator, among any number of other things.

And by antenna, yes it could be what you think of as an Aerial, but it likely won't be the same one as for the radio (some antennas are multi purpose, but most are tuned to specific bands)

RF analog electronics can often be damaged if powered without the antenna load, and of those that won't be damaged, many will be able to detect and fault for lack of antenna load.

So replacing the antenna with a dummy load will keep the system operating "normally" without risk of damage, but also without actually sending data.

When you can't afford to lose what you "invested"

Better would be to locate the antenna connection on the device that's doing the communication, and replace the antenna with a dummy load.

Because, the kingdom of god isn't here. So fuck those poors. /s

The only liquid we've discovered with no surface tension is helium. And only at or below specific temperatures depending on the type of helium.

Very unlikely water would ever get to that state.

Automotive groups, forums, clubs that focus on your individual brand of vehicle, or better your specific vehicle.

Brands generally keep the same style or type of system across their range, so if it works for one car in the brand it is much more likely to work on another.

My Chevy volt, for example, has a separate controller from the engine controller, and I could just airgap(unplug) it.

Others you may have to remove the antenna, replacing with a dummy load to not permanently damage the circuits.

Those posts were installed perfectly parallel. Nice

Yup, this is why in my own vehicles I physically disconnect the system that sends these messages.

Now do Trump.

MooooooooooooooooooOOOOh

Could tie it into adsb and send complaints with specific tail#s

Hopefully he does that thing where both step in the same direction, over and over.

I call it Deadman, but also needs activated by external means. So not quite fully Deadman.

Exactly this.

Though I am not sure how much more the designing actually costs in labor, compared to how much more they charge. (Marketing and licensing are other things that would be customized for these specialty/collector sets)

You think people who want a Cybertruck are intelligent? Or aren't willing to pay and extra 50k to get it now, instead of having to wait a year or more to get it after deciding?

Meh, just post it for sale at 50k higher than what you actually want out of it.

I'm not inside my skin. I am my skin.

You sound suspiciously like my coworker. ( my governor as well, sadly enough)
