I gave the tire guy the specs of the car but the ID showed up as decimal. I wasn't really paying attention when he scanned all the wheels and took the pictures. I've been going back and forth on getting the autel device. I don't have much use for it anymore since I know all the tpms id codes for my vehicles... But it's always nice buying new tools. How do you like it and what model did you get? I've heard they can only program using their own TPMS sensors.
That's interesting. My Autel TPMS tool does ask me if I want to change ID base (Dec vs Hex) for viewing or entering a sensor ID, but it will always program the ECU in Hex (technically binary in Hex base, 4bit wide per char of ID, etc).
Techstream Setting to disable smart key proximity sensor?
Hello, anyone know the techstream setting to disable the smart key proximity sensor? I am wanting to do so to discourage the smart key relay-attack. I know many of you have your opinions on this matter but I am asking for responses on correct setting in techstream. Thanx in advance.
Thanks acrad......that did the trick. I've now disabled the smart key sensor and no longer worry about walking out to an empty driveway. I can no longer use my credit card smart key but only a minor loss.
The folding mirror feature isn't available via TS, it's the aftermarket ODB add on. You can use TS to turn off the steering wheel telescoping when exiting/entering the car, turn off seat belt chime and program the doors to be rolled down via the remote and a bunch of other stuffs.
Thanks for above info. That is exactly what I plan to do, to disable auto tilt of steering wheel when exiting/entering the car. I have 2015 GX premium, will TS version 12 work with 1.4.1 firmware mini vci cable or I have to use 2.0.4 cable. I have a windows XP. thanks.
I'm purchasing a cable for using TechStream on our 2012 GX. Is there consensus as to if it is better to have a legacy 1.4.8 cable or a newer 2.0.4 cable?
