Vida CEM swapping
Re: Vida CEM swapping
150 for an annual subscription is fine, certainly better than 99 for a single change. However, the P1 issue persists, so only vdash remains.

Well, someday I won't be too lazy and there will be p1....
For now, 150 is p2 (read/write + keys + remote) and p3 (coding) together.
And, if need I can add used remote too.

I believe you once asked for DTC disabling. I have made some progress on this, but not verified without reflashing my ECM. I believe I have found a table that if zeroed out will disable DTCs.porcupine7655 wrote: ↑28 May 2025, 23:38Here is the dump from the ecu's I have. Have not dumped the ETM yet. To long thread, is there any tool to do that out there?
The spare files is from a ecu I got from ebay, other one is the one in my car. Have not dumped the internal cpu flash from that one yet.
Additionally each DTC is stored in a 128 entry table, with 66 bytes struct size. One of these is our regular ECM-<XXX> format code (just XXX) and followed by entries describing or rather identifiers for the failure type e.g Signal missing, signal low etc.

You were right. Those were seed keys. I now did a comparison using the original p3 file and the file i managed to get working with the screen.
I was able to get hash collision to print same results on both files, but i'm too confused where the pin should be.
I'll attach few pics if someone could help me.

00 00 16 c6 d4 is your pin (hash collision). It is in HEX. Some software may dislike it as the real pin is BCD-coded. If you take the seed and key to seed-gen in the utility directory of the cracker, you'll get all the possible BCD pin codes.
One of these BCD hash collision will be real pin in CEM, but they all work.
Code: Select all
$ gcc -Ofast -o seed-gen seed-gen.c
$ ./seed-gen --seed "1c f6 ec" --key "c8 41 a0"

i know this is frustrating for you all, but hopefully helpful to atleast someone later on.
How and where do i run the seed gen? Do i merge it with the cracker? Do i run it somewhere online?
I am fairly new in the whole arduino/coding scene and trying my Best to learn
Do the pins from seedgen work in vdash?

When I need it quickly, I search Google for C online compiler, paste the code there, and run it.ghettob wrote: ↑25 Jan 2026, 03:47 i know this is frustrating for you all, but hopefully helpful to atleast someone later on.

In vtls post you can see the two command lines used at the top.
He is using gcc to compile seed-gen.c source code into a program called seed-gen.
In the second command line he is running this program from the current directory (.) with a known good pair of seed and key to get a list of all the pin codes that would create the same key for this seed.
Linux with gcc is one alternative.
You can run linux as a sub system in windows 10.
In windows I can recommend tcc. Tiny C Compiler.

I agree with this, I am also a beginner in programming
Can you explain a little better how to do it?
This is my reading, I tried on different websites but I don't know how to do it

Your HEX pin that caused a hash collision is "00 00 0d 3a 93". Can use it directly as pin. Or, if software required BCD pin, can take any of 600+ ones found with seed-gen:radziuC30 wrote: ↑25 Jan 2026, 06:55 I agree with this, I am also a beginner in programming
