Techstream DIY

#1
I bought a mini vci j2534 cable with Tecshtream Ver. 10.10.018 CD last week from a site claiming to be an authorized "Xhorse" dealer (cheap 27 bucks). That one works on my 2012 Corolla with 16-pin diagnostic connector).

I used to buy one non- Xhorse Techstream cable, it worked too. But I failed to get it worked onK-line Toyota on Win 7 64-bit operating system. The second xhorse cable runs perfectly on Win XP, Win 7 32 bit/64 bit Virtual PC on Intel based laptops.

Here is a perfect document on installing Ver.10 on Win 8.1

But i made it work on win 7 64 bit O/S.

Firmware is king.

X-horse company developed this MINI VCI from Toyota Techstream software. There are 2 versions of Mini VCI; firmware ver. 2.0.1 and 1.4.1. My friend got the later and reported has no K-line signal.

My mini vci comes with firmware V2.0.1 (not V1.4.0 or higher v2.0.4)

The xhorse v2.0.1 cable 100% works with all modern Toyotas (K-line and CAN BUS) except you get no L line support for flashing ECUs. It will definitely no do. This is tested by most of Toyota owner, me included.

Firmware PCB Layouts, parts are well soldered and connected.
