I can get a PIN code in 12 seconds. However, it's useless for read/write (it can be read, of course, but very slowly). It's much easier to work without a PIN code using OBD. For example, TechNest.

You can extract the CEM-B pin code in 12 seconds?

Yes

P.S. I Lied... 13 seconds.

This would make some sense if CEM allowed loading and executing SBL with a PIN code other than 0000000000

So your saying technest can read/write the CEM without pincode? Even the keys and sync data?
