I have heard that the cars without real ignition keys (in other words, those rfid fobs without a mechanical ignition lock) that it could be possible to authorize a new key by communicating on the OBD2 connector. You do not need access to a

No. That is a different mechanism, and part of the wheel, not the tire.

Some boards like this were assembled with the help of CNC wire wrap equipment. I don't think they were fully automated - more like the computer positioned the tools for the operator. On a board with thousands of wires, this eliminate

We have computer-controlled braking and throttles now, and while I figure it's unlikely that someone will tinker with the brakes software (as long as it's not integrated into something he wants to tinker with) there has been a fam

This article is one-sided and shortsighted. There are many reasons why engine controls must include anti-tampering measures. There is a business case to extend these principles to other control modules in a car. Disclosure: I've bee

Lots of companies would consider the answer to that question to be confidential information. When I worked at a startup, the initial deployments were well aware that they were beta sites and that they would be working with us to polish the

Requiring a valid badge number might encourage only negative posts. I personally haven't demanded a badge number unless I'm displeased. I think there may be many instances where someone has something to say and do not know this p

Trademarks have limited scope, and trademark bullies have been shot down because the similar trademarks are in different industries with enough separation that confusion in the marketplace is unlikely.

Is this article about engine or exhaust noise? I prefer quiet exhausts, and it's nice to hear the engine itself sometimes when I deliberately select too low a gear. I look at loud exhausts with disdain, and think they show childish

Well, my time in Holland was the first time driving outside of North America. I turned right against red signals a few times until I had an European coworker in the car. Until the parking signs were explained to me, I had assumed these mea

I wear glasses too because of nearsightedness. It took me several tries at different eye doctors to find lenses that did not make me sick, but my negative experiences were not only with video displays. I had problems driving and reading,

I am interested in more about your situation. Do you wear corrective lenses? Have you tried reducing the backlighting on your display?

In the older days some of these disks had a discrete rom for this, but recently they have been integrated into a larger chip. It seems that if you have the rework skills, you can transfer the chip with integrated memory to the new board.

When I was a newcomer to Holland (and Europe in general) I found this confusing because it was not stated that parking is free during other times. I had another confusion because of my ignorance of the language. A light up sign at an inter

Thermionic tubes are works of art. It's amazing that most of the work to build these was done by hand, and yet they perform very well and are highly durable. Now the article has me wondering what a DC Millimeter is. :) I think I need

Hi. I think this UART can be made better. A typical hardware UART receiver is clocked at a multiple of the signalling rate (16x is common) and the pin is sampled according to the clock. During the middle of the bit period, marks on the b
