I believe I read somewhere that the two hots aren't interchangeable when running on 120v. Perhaps try swapping them? On the Yellow cable, the one on the right is the 5-15 hot, and the one to the left is the 5-15 neutral, with the ground pin on top when looking into the end of the charging cable. So, clockwise from the Pilot is Neutral, Ground, Hot. The car is the mirror image, of course.
Please be careful and don't blow something up.
