Find you CEM p/n in the source code, change last number in array (usually 0), try to crack, repeat.

Confirm if I'm thinking correctly. Red - my CEM number. Yellow - I change the digit - I change the shuffle order of the PIN bytes.

Yes, change it to 2. Also read this: viewtopic.php?p=592875#p592875 We need to change shuffle order for 8690720.
Hello the forum,
Sorry for the late for upadting my posts.
I have sucessfully read the pin on the bench, I've changed the can module, maybe the old one was dead.
To resume :
On the CEM
PIN 8 15 & 16 on +12v
PIN 6 on ground (same as the ground on teensy)
PIN 33 & 48 on CAN HS
PIN 40 & 55 on CAN LS
I've booted the CEM cracker & the CEM at the same time with a stabilized power supply.
About 15-20 minutes and the PIN code appear
Great job & thanks for your help.

Unfortunately, I don't know any Volvo driver, but I will help anyone in need.

Hi all.
Quite massive page count on this topic..
Have a question, and maybe someone can answer directly without need to go through 430 pages
Just read the CEM on a V70, 2001 and looking for the PIN. (And IMMO code of course if it is possible to decode from there)
I used the kaev´s Arduino BDM soft, the only problem is that you can not save the read binary with that software.
https://volvo-tech.com/en/793-2/ (Used Arduino UNO for this, as it was easily available).
Going through the peoples replys, I found info that the PIN should be located in address 0x04E000 is this right?
Do not see any sense to buy expensive programmer just for getting one remote programmed to otherwise cheap car.
Anyone able to help on this?
Oh, the CEM unit is HW-PN: 9452596
Other markings: 8645697/01W075

It might be yes , i tallied up the type and compared it to xprogs connnections via bdm, now at first , I saw a locksmith wiring up a xhorse programmer to the BDM connections, and i wondered if the cem cracker has been tried out on them newer cems.vtl wrote: ↑14 Feb 2026, 08:35Is it SPA?oscilloscope wrote: ↑14 Feb 2026, 02:31 Has the CEM cracker been tried on the later delphi CEM's?
