Hyundai: VIN request fails on some cars

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug

We are working on a car port for a 2022 Hyundai Kona Electric (#23517), and the car will not get recognized and kept throwing “CAN Error” as soon as it goes onroad. Upon investigation, we found that the car’s VIN wasn’t even read correctly: OSEV__ BMS \x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00. We attempted with multiple power cycles and the issue persisted.

We then attempted to introduce a delay with the fingerprinting query similar to how Subaru is trying to do, and found that the VIN was changed to 00000000000000000, but broken or unqueried FW versions all over the place.

Maybe this is somewhat related to the inconsistent fingerprinting we had issues with a couple of months ago? (#21333)

Bad VIN, fully queried FW versions (unconfirmed):
