Mini Vci J2534 Cable Standard Obd2 Communication Interface for TIS Techstream V17 V18 Toyota Lexus Scion OBD2 Scanner Diagnostic USB Vehicle Scan Tool

Excelente, la verdad al principio crei que era algo dificil de usar pero en youtube hay bastantes videos que te dicen como usarlo y como instalarlo. Con eso me di una idea de como instalarlo y seguí las instrucciones. Me ayudo a arreglar mi camioneta, recomiendo que consigan los manuales de taller ya que ahí dicen los códigos que arroja y como arreglar el problema.

Are you receive the item but the CD not working with me can i have link to download

Great product that saved me hundreds of dollars. You need some technical ability to use this, but if you're even considering reprogramming your car to use different/new key fob yourself, you probably have the necessary skills. Compared to many of the alternatives that hook up to your phone, this is cheaper, and can be used with as many compatible cars as you like (vs. the others, which lock to a single VIN). I was able to use the interface in January, 2026 with a Windows 11 laptop to program my 2013 Highlander for a new key (and delete a missing one). All the software you need is on the included CD. Make sure you have a new key that is an *exact* match for the one you already have (take the existing key apart and check the markings on the PCB board in the key fob). If you're replacing a lost key, here's the overview of what you need to do: 1) Install the software on your laptop from the CD. This involves (a) installing techstream v18 (just run the installer) (b) installing the driver v1.4.8 (run the exe in the appropriate folder depending on your architecture, x86 or x64) - note you may need to disable your antivirus during this step. If this concerns you (it probably should), then you can install on a virtual machine or a laptop that you are able to wipe clean afterward. (c) run the patch / copy it to your desktop. Note that to run the software, you will actually run the "patch" shortcut and not the main desktop icon 2) plug the device into ODB port and laptop. Run the patch icon as described above and enter your vehicle information. Search for a channel called "DIY-time" on youtube, and his videos "How to program a smart key on any Toyota, Lexus or Scion" and "how to erase a lost or stolen transponder chip keys from Toyota, Lexus, or Scion ECU computer." You cannot delete a specific key. Instead, you will need to erase all keys paired with the car EXCEPT the one you have in the car when you do this, and then you can re-pair whichever additional keys you like (If you're just adding a new key and haven't lost any, then you can just add them without deleting anything). To be on the safe side, I first added the new key to make sure everything worked, and then deleted everything but the existing key, followed by re-adding the new key. It took me about an hour of research/installation to make sure I had everything working correctly, but everything worked first try and the new key fob started the car, opened the doors/trunk perfectly.

I purchased this cable to use with Techstream for my Toyota Sienna LE 2020, and overall, I’m very satisfied with the product. The package arrived with the Mini VCI cable and a disc that included both Techstream versions 17 and 18. I followed the instructions provided on the disc (a video guide) and successfully installed version 18 on a Windows 11 laptop. Setup was straightforward, though I did have to temporarily disable my antivirus during installation to avoid interference — this was clearly explained in the instructions. Once installed, the software recognized the cable and connected to the vehicle without any issues. I was able to program a new alarm remote and two H-type physical keys, all purchased separately on Amazon. The keys had to be physically cut, which cost me $1.90 per key at a local hardware store. All features tested so far worked flawlessly. For the price, this tool delivered exactly what I needed for basic diagnostics and key/remote programming. Highly recommended for DIY users familiar with Techstream.

I've worked in computer repair for 30 years. And this thing was very difficult to get working.. once I finally did It wouldn't read the engine/ETC ecu's. The virus is a real Trojan. If it If it was a false positive then I understand disabling the virus protection. But... You have to disable all the firewalls for the "usb cable to communicate with the vehicle" This is false. Windows firewall is for networking and internet only, Not for USB. I wouldnt eventrust it on a VM. VMs use NAT (network address translation) so its still using your internet and it needs you to disable PUBLIC and private firewalls. IDK .. buyer beware. It was not worth the time to set it up.. and then have the most important features not work.
