Hi all,
After years of experience in mostly German vehicles I recently started working on recent Volvo and Polestar vehicles.
When I was working on specific vehicles in the past I was using a generic gateway from a donor vehicle, which allowed me to connect ECU's to (at the correct CAN Bus etc.) to do diagnostics on that ECU on my bench outside its host vehicle.
Would Orbit (and Volvo/Polestar) allow a similar setup? I.e. Can I use a donor VGM to connect to a different ECU like a IHU4?
Or is the pincode mechanism etc completely failing that way?
