With the recently introduced SecOC (Secure Onboard Communication) standard, car manufacturers seek to make the CAN bus networks that form the backbone of modern day cars more secure. This standard …read more Continue reading Extracting SecOC Keys From a 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime
In the world of proprietary protocol darkness, it’s comforting to see that the RV realm (Recreational Vehicle, also known as a motorhome) has mostly settled on RV-C, an open protocol …read more Continue reading RV-Bridge Takes HomeKit to the Open Road
Since modern cars use the CAN bus for so many of their functions, it’s unsurprising that it’s a frequent object of interest for those in our community. Some people go …read more Continue reading This ESP32 CAN!
[Jacob Geigle] had a problem. A GPS unit and a Bluetooth-to-serial were tying up all the hardware UARTs on an AVR Arduino project. “Software serial”, I hear you say. But …read more Continue reading UART Can’t? Arduino CANSerial Can!
The Tesla Model 3 and Model Y are popular electric vehicles that dispense with some of the usual provisions you’d expect in a typical car. Namely, there’s no dash cluster …read more Continue reading Hacking A Proper Dash Into The Tesla Model 3
[Willem Melching] owns a 2010 Volkswagen Golf – a very common vehicle in Europe – and noticed that whilst the electronic steering rack supports the usual Lane Keep Assist (LKAS) …read more Continue reading Baby Steps Toward DIY Autonomous Driving: VW Golf Edition
Something like 99% of the people on the road at any given moment will consider themselves an above-average driver, something that’s as statistically impossible as it is easily disproven by …read more Continue reading Annoy Yourself into Better Driving with This Turn Signal Monitor
[Voltlog] has been hacking away at the CAN bus console of his VW Golf for quite some time now. Presumably, for his projects, the available CAN bus interface boards are …read more Continue reading CAN bus Wireless Hacking / Dev Board
As cars have become more sophisticated electronically, understanding the CAN bus that forms the backbone of automotive digital systems has become more and more important for hacking cars. Inexpensive microcontroller …read more Continue reading Using CanoPy to Visualize the CAN Bus
We’ve seen several so-called “digital dash” upgrades over the years that either augment, or completely replace, a vehicle’s original dashboard indicators with new displays. Whether its seven segment LEDs or …read more Continue reading RGB LED Rings Teach Old Dash New Tricks
