Honda Sensing - Keeping Your Sensors Clean

Sometimes your sensors can get covered by ice and snow or mud, if this happens, don't worry! The car is still going to work, just your sensing suite is turned off. It's good to know the location of the sensors on your Honda so that you can clean them off before hitting the road!

My 5 years old 2018 Acura MDX (40k miles) suddenly started having the exact problem after parking for one day under the rain. I paid $280 for diagnosis. The dealer asked for $3600 to replace the camera mounted on the windshield, the emblem and the radar behind the emblem. I opened the cover under the hood to troubleshoot the wire. I realize that all the wires connecting the plugs or connectors are very very thin, seem very very old, very very fragile and seem to be very very easy to break. Maybe, that is the reason Acura and Honda need a cover to cover the engine, so people can not see the very very thin and fragile wires connection inside the engine.
I had tried many ways to try to reset the warning lights of the flashing ACC, Collision Mitigation and Lane Off Mitigation icons, but no luck.
- disconnected the battery, and reconnected the battery after 12 hours
- tested all fuses in the 5 fuse boxes - all fuses seem ok, (not test the relays yet)
- disconnected and reconnected the power for the camera on the windshield
- checked the battery, - has 12.6 volt and 95% full, reach up to 14.6 volt when engine on
- clean the windshield and the front logo
My front logo or emblem has brown dirt inside and I can not clean. I am not sure if that is the main reason for the sudden flashing of the warning lights

Does anyone know how to reset the warning lights or fix the problem???
Where are the fuses and relays for the flashing warning lights?
The emblem does not seem have any electrical wire connection.
How the emblem or front logo works with the radar behind it?
What is the problem?

Thought you had to remove the covers on the civic. Going to try this when I get home.

I was just driving along in normal spring dry weather, all honda sensing errors came up, along with a small square with CAM inside the square. Drives totally fine, but cant use my cluster. Any idea, or quick fix?

My 2019 Ridgeline windshield sensor needs cleaning on the inside...between the windshield inside and the sensor. Is it possible to use a panel tool to remove the cover by the rear view mirror to access?

Thank you honda for installing that sensor so easy to steal mine just got stolen!
Same sh!t happened in NJ in June 2020 on a large scale, several hundred CRV 's got robbed of the damn honda sensing "radar sensor" in a matter of couple weeks.
Because it's so easy to do without any special tools, they're able to rob 20 cars in literally 20min.
Unsuspecting owners started their cars to be greeted with multiple warningns:

Collision Mitigation Braking System Problem,
Road Departure/Mitigation System Problem,
Lane Keeping Assist System Problem,
Auto High-Beam Headlights Problem,
Adaptive Cruise Control Problem,
Brake System Problem.

Horrible design, Genuine Honda ignorance!
