Open comma.ai openpilot fingerprinting issues: https://github.com/commaai/openpilot/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+fingerprint

openpilot queries the firmware of your vehicle upon start and configures itself to your vehicle accordingly with a list of pre-existing firmwares in the codebase. This process is called [Fingerprinting](https://github.com/commaai/openpilot/wiki/Fingerprinting). If you currently see an error of `Car Unrecognized: Dashcam Mode`, you should try to go through the [fingerprinting guide](https://github.com/commaai/openpilot/wiki/Fingerprinting). *Please make sure to follow the suggestion in the guide to try the `master-ci` branch first and reaching out to the vehicle brand's Discord channel if you have issues.*

A common feature suggestion for comma.ai's openpilot is to have a selectable vehicle selector in the settings if a vehicle is unrecognized. This is a temporary out-of-openpilot-codebase solution until such functionality is implemented and present. This repository may still be useful in the case of [false positives](https://github.com/commaai/openpilot/issues/28483) if such a selector is implemented and if access to it is unavailable due to the false positive.

The generator only hardcodes fingerprints for vehicle identification. It will not override "Dashcam Only" in the code such as in this file for Ford: https://github.com/commaai/openpilot/blob/fa353401f44751d88ffdc583449177451d726d63/selfdrive/car/ford/interface.py#L17.

You can see a list of fingerprint models, their corresponding installer URLs for the [URL installer](https://github.com/commaai/openpilot/wiki/Forks#url-installers-at-installation-screen), and a link to a GitHub view of the branches here:
