I’m thinking the same quality content

As usual... Awesomely funny and somewhat legal advices 😀. A fan from China.

Thank you so much! I had the exact same CD, with the exact same paper instructions, with the exact same problem: it installs version 15 just fine, but version 15 doesn't have the button I needed to get in and update the TPMS codes. Found the blog you mentioned, got version 12 in the virtual machine, and the button I need is finally there and I got the codes updated.

Curious as to whether the version you needed correlated to the model year vehicle. I'm trying to connect 2021 TPMS to a 2016 Tundra

As always, a pleasure to waste time with you. Thanks for the how to. Now I’ll just have to see if this will work it’s my ‘17 GX.

This video is really encouraging. I decided to give Techstream a try. Thank!

God send video. Awesome! Thanks!! :)

Cool stuff!

i have an old XP lappy that i keep for this sort of thing, where can i get the techstream to just run on this, the link seems to be for a version designed only for virtualbox , and it would seem crazy to run virtualbox on a machine that... is already windows XP, which should be perfect for TS. Thanks

Excellent and useful video thank you

Informative thanks

Thanks for the video. Do you know if this works on a 2022 4runner? I talked to the dealership about disabling the rear window buttons link to the door lock to see if I will be able to roll my rear window up using the buttons on the back without having to shut the car off and close all the doors. The setting in my manual shows it's customizable at dealership but they told me you have to enter a password in the software to make changes. It would run $160 and they are not sure what that change will even do. ugh! I don't know if the password deal is new or if that's BS.

Whichever way one goes about it is it essential that one has x86 programe files on your computer which seem to be missing on mine?

Hello, I wonder if you make changes with Techstream. Are there any traces or info left in the system that the Dealer can notice? My unit is new 2022 Highlander and I don't want to lose any warranty. Thank you

you are the best

I'm using a virtualbox on a mac. It's looking for a kernel, where do I get that?

Does it have to be XP 32bit or can it be 7 or 10 32 bit?

Hey. Can we make the EPS of a 2017 corolla lighter by this software

Which version do have customization menu? I downloaded the 18.00.008 version... Does this version has the customization menu?

Thanks for the video. Can you share what version of virtual box you were able to successfully use? I am a Mac OS 10.15.7 user and version 5.2 does not work which is the last version that supports 32 bit. Thx

I ran it on on version 6.1 which is the latest as of today. I was using it on an older 10.13 mac laptop so maybe try again? I just downloaded the "how to get Techstream in 5 minutes" search result so I'm not sure what is going on. Thanks for watching and good luck!

@@WastingTimeInTheWoods Thx for tip, that got me past part 1 of the problem. Did you install any drivers for the cable to show up? I can't get it to appear on my mac or virtual box xp machine. It seems that a driver is already setup on the VM but it does not recognize the cable. I purchased the cheaper one from you description btw. I also got a GX460!

@@ramzizaz Hey, buddy. Sorry you're having trouble. I had a similar issue at one point. Try restarting the virtual machine (windows). Maybe try once with the cable plugged in and once without. There should be a little USB detected pop-up window in the bottom right. I always hit cancel I think you definitely don't need a driver as the virtual machine from the ODB-II blog had it installed already. Good luck and let me know if you have more trouble.

do you need 1.4.x firmware cable or 2.0.4 to work on your 2nd gen GX 460? I have a 2015.

I got techstream installed and working. However when it got to register my TPMS sensors, after pressing "write" to the ecu, it gives me communication error. I think it might be my cable. Your thoughts?

@WastingTimeInTheWoods

3 жыл бұрын

Hmmm. Im not sure. I only use mine for creature comfort stuff and checking for codes. Sometimes I get a connection error if I add the usb after I start the virtual machine. Try hooking it up and then restart the windows inside the virtual machine. Then install the driver when it finds the dongle if it pops up.

@@WastingTimeInTheWoods I can change other settings on the truck, look up live data, and clear codes. It is just that one function. I read that the cable needs a certain firmware to write to the ecu. Was curious if you knew anything about it. I also have a version running on windows 10. I can send you the ISO files if you want?
