Persevere - I found it an *** to get running, but once you have it setup it's as good as gold.

I actually found the set-up wasn't too bad. Just followed the instructions supplied

Anyone know if it's harder to get this newer version to work, i have this 14.30.023 im trying to get setup. Also i heard the cable has to be V2.0.4?

Realistically i dont know the differences between the versions, so if yours is working then great.

​​​​​​​What cable version are you using and what did you use for the dealer id or w/e for techstream?

superboy74

The cable i am using is the Mini VCI TIS J2534, and per my instructions i got from the seller of the cable there is no need to input a dealer ID when setting up the software but i will double check when i get home and using V14.30.023.

For reference, this is the product I am using with Windows 10

The newer versions just add compatibility for newer cars, the underlying software is basically the same across all of them. Version 9 does all the same things as 14 or whatever the latest one is. I have version 9.

You really paid $70? That's a ripoff. I paid $15 or $20 on eBay.

Here is one, $20 on Amazon:

There are also several on eBay for around the same price from USA sellers. If you buy on eBay from a China seller you can get it for $14.

Toyota apparently doesn't care people are ripping off copies of their proprietary dealer software. There is no license key required to connect to the cloud to activate the software. Seems like they secretly want anyone who seeks it to get their hands on it for the price of the cable.

I believe the $30 listings have v14 tech-stream software or whatever the latest one is, only necessary if your car is 2018+

I'm using this cable, OBDII365. It's made for Toyota, JLR, and Volvo VIDA (luckily, I own 2 of the 3.) This allows me to write the new TPMS ID via Techstream and all other things that the old MINI-VCI cable can do. I had the $15 cable before but it throws an error when writing the ID to the TPMS computer. I guess there is a new protocol that the older cable does not have.
