The other error is when the software asks for a key. Some don't apply but I can't make heads or tails of the others.Ĥ. I get a help screen with some pointers on that, but I can't make heads or tails of them. One is that the cable is "Unable to Connect to VIM." I don't even know what VIM refers to, but obviously the computer/software wont' connect to the car. Can it be done? If so, can anyone point me to an active link with the driver?ģ.

Al the links I find have inactive links to the driver. I've read that this can be done but I can't confirm that. I am using a 64-bit laptop with Windows 10. I'm just a regular guy trying to change a few settings.Ģ. Is this true? Do I need any sort of subscription to do all this? I don't work at a dealer or shop. I've seen conflicting info on this - do I need any kind of subscription to any software to do this - or is it just a matter of having the cord and the software? I keep seeing in various places that I need a subscription to either connect and use the software at all, OR that I can connect w/o a subscription but that I can't do anything other than pure diagnostics w/o subscribing - so that maybe I couldn't turn on the alarm or program a fob, for example. I need a few basic questions answered to know if I'm even on the right track.ġ. I can't get the software to connect to the car no matter what I do. Much thanks to anyone who can help out with any or all of these.
#USING TECHSTREAM DRIVERS#
Some info has given me the impression the cable comes with the software, but others say it's just the drivers that come with it? What's the deal on that? Does the VCI cable need to match the software's version? Or will a cable operate with an earlier version of the software?Ĥ. I've seen some cite discrepancies with 32 vs. Seems like there are some free downloads but I'm confused b/c some of them seem to be billed as diagnostics, and I'm not sure if I can use those to make adjustments or not.Ģ. What version of the software do I need and where is the best place to get it? I'm confused as to whether TechStream TIS is the same as GTS, and whether it's free or not. I can very easily imagine myself downloading software and buying a cable only to have them not work.

#USING TECHSTREAM HOW TO#
I'm wondering if anyone can tell me how to get my ducks in a row relating to the proper software and/or VCI cable to get before I start in. I'm moderately tech savvy for a lay person, but a lay person nonetheless. I have a pre-owned 2014 Sienna LE with one key fob and want to:
