Not my first bootloader, this is even able to read and write external EEPROM of the CPU, but i think most people want a config changer here and i hope to get it work this easter days... Who just needs a dice flash reading tool can pm me to read out his complete CEM flash when he got code by teensy before.

Dice is just a CAN communication tool, with code the cem can be written by can bus, so the tool exactly doesnt matter. But to be able to write you need to upload a bootloader program into CEMs RAM before, without you have no flash writing functions.

Set minimum latency that is displayed to 60us, at the moment it should be set at 80us and it seems you have a cem with fast bootloader that responds at 60us.

I have been working off vtl's github experimenting on my 2005 XC90 V8. Finally got tired of the breadboard, wondering about crosstalk, EMI etc, so drew up his schematic in Eagle CAD and designed a PCB. Yes, I screwed up and called the project CIM cracker instead of CEM LOL
I've attached a photo and the zip of the eagle project, complete with gerbers. I sent the gerbers off to SEEED studio and for 2.49 plus shipping, in 1 week had 10 boards back.
BOM is also attached. didn't add the teensy or the female pin headers for it as I had those already.
Enjoy!
