I'd get Techstream running. Seeing everything at once and having some rudimentary logging with faster sample rates available is worth quite a bit. All you need is a laptop and a $35 cable. Might save you a lot of time chasing after possible problems.

I have received my mini VCI cable with techstream disk. Software has installed. How do I get activation code?

Hi Received cable and CD Unable to download software from CD Please advise

Hi Joyce, I finally got it to work. I had to use the Techstream 14 files and use the 32bit patch as a connection button.
I don't think I read that in the current instructions. :-)
I'm attaching a Notepad File for your company to send people who order from the USA. They should understand it much better!
Take care and thanks!
Robert
See below steps
For Windows XP 32bit:
1. Install "Techstream_GTS_14.20.019_NDSI"
2. Install "Mini VCI Driver for TOYOTA"
3. Copy and Paste "Techstream Patch 32bit" & place it next to your Techstream Icon on Desktop
4. Hook MINI-VCI J2534 Cable to vehicle OBDII port and computer
5. Turn car key to "On" position, lighting up dashboard
6. Start MVCI Firmware Update Tool
7. Start Techstream Software
8. First try connecting to vehicle byway of Techstream software
9. If unsuccessful, try connecting byway of clicking "Techstream Patch 32bit"
10. If #9 is successful, always use it as your connection icon

It finally arrived! It had been so long I almost didn't know what the package was!
Now to hopefully reprogram my car so I can use the remotes again. Thank you!!!!!!!

Thanks for the link!! I tried to work through it on my own last night,

Hi my item arrived safely today but unfortunately the enclosed disks do not work could i please have if possible a link to download the software

Do you have to have V15.00.026 Diagnostic Software for this cable to work? or will it work with all versions of the software?

Thanks! I was able to download the SW and it seems to have a successful installation.

Just a peice of advice. For windows 10 64 bit you should provide the registry update that is required to get Techstream to recognize this device after it’s been installed. There is no driver required as windows has its own.

I was able to find this on the internet after a bunch of searching.

I got this working with my toyota and it works great.

Cable works great, software is a pain to install on windows 10 though...

Thank you. I was able to load the software and the cable does work. All is good.
Thank you,
Dave

Thank you. I got the cable. Much appreciated. The problem is now that the CD sent with the package is no good so I have no software.
What do I do now?

I love the cable. I tried it on different software and it works great. thank you

Hi my name is Ryan and i ordered a vci j2534 scanner and cd from you guys on feb 18th, i got the order in the mail today and the cd with the software on it is damaged and not usable. I was wondering if you could send me another one hopefully from somewhere within the usa so it doesnt take as long to ship. My order number was LF048066553SG.
Thanks and hope you can help,
Ryan Maas

Hi , I've just pick up the package from post office :) thank you

Thank you for your response. I got software problem figured out.

Cable arrived and looks good but my disk arrived damaged. I have no software or driver, not usable right now.
