When you said that I thought but it's precisely about the circuit I'm asking!... but then I checked again the basiscs I could check without actually getting anything and you were right. Maybe because I was too tired when I finished the thing for the first time, the wires from the PCB to the OBD-II connector weren't in the right order. I stupidly passed months bothering everywhere with questions and thinking about the resistors and the CF160 or whatever else could be the problem, and the problem was staring at my face.
Well, to try and make amends, I can confirm the PCB from https://www.pcbway.com/project/sharepro ... 037d5.html with a Teensy 4.0 or 4.1 (even if the latter overlaps and is less comfortable to mount) works perfectly with a couple of Bosch CF160 transceivers. There is no need for any resistor: just the PCB, the Teensy, a pair of CF160 transceivers and the OBD-II connector. Grounding OBD's pin 5 to the Teensy isn't needed.
I connected pins G, 0, 1, 2 and 22, 23, 3V, G and Vin from the Teensy to the PCB (the first 4 pins of the top left side of the Teensy and the 5 first pins of the top right side). I'v just look again at the diagram and it states only pins 0, 1, 2, 22, 23, G and Vin are needed.
I connected the thing to my 2012 Volvo C30 T5 (CEM part number 31327215) with the door closed (thank God, later on it rained buckets!) but not locked and with no key.
This was the happy result:

Code: Select all

PIN is cracked in 1888.42 seconds
Validating PIN
PIN verified.
Thanks for the help and for the years of effort in this project. I hope the info will be useful to someone else.

N.B.: I had a hard time finding the pin 1 of the Bosch transceivers, are there is no dot marking it... well, there is a chamfer on one side of the chip that lets you know pin 1 is on that side.

You look very complicated, I can directly use VIDA to crack the CEM PIN, Vida ++ shark

I mean if the PIN exists in the VIDA database it would be nice to know!

I went through each table in the database at least several times, unfortunately the PIN is not stored in the local database.
I'm talking about VIDA2014

How do you have Vida online subscription ? It's very difficult to get, requires independent operator status.

Depends on where you are. In US any individual pays $70 and it is his for 3 days.

Yes in the US it is like that, but in Europe - entirely different requirements, stricter even.
