New Toyota Techstream V16.00.020 software working fine with Mini VCI cable, Support Toyota,Scion and Lexus vehicles. Techstream is designed to be simple to use, and anyone can do it. Most versions only require a pc (preferably a laptop), the Techstream software itself, and a special mini VCI cable. If you bought the MINI VCI J2534 cable and there is no unpacked driver on the disk, and there is only the MVCI Driver for TOYOTA.msi installer that does not really work when installed on any Windows x64 and gives an error, and it must be installed, otherwise the sw will not work, and it does not matter. Plug in mini VCI cable. Open the Device Manager the device should be loaded. If not, right click each failing device, select Install Driver, then ”Browse my Computer” and locate to “C:Program Files (x86)XHorse ElectronicsMVCI Driver for TOYOTA TIS” (enable the ”include subfolders” flag). 1.Power on mini condor. Current verison:V4.0.1. 2.Download and unzip' Xhorse update Kit '. Copy and paste the ' Xhorse update Kit ' on your desktop,then click it. Select XCMINI-KM03 and version V.5.0.4. 3.Find device and click on the upgrade. 4.Connect the mini condor to your computer with the USB cable.

I have a Mini-VCI J2534 cable which worked happily with my Techstream 10 install on 64 bit Windows 7, after some faffing. Anyway, had to give that laptop back last month when I left the job I'd acquired it from.
Windows 10 has a few more challenges. You need at least Techstream 12 (you could hack about with the registry to get Techstream 10 to work, nit don't waste your time). And you need to get Windows 10 to load 64 bit drivers for the cable. Windows 10 really doesn't want to let you load old, unsigned drivers. You can do it, but it'll make it hard for you.
So a bit of googling and a bit of trial and error and these steps seem to work.

Follow the steps under : Techstream install Windows 10.
Step 2. You want to run this from the cmd prompt as the admin user. (type 'cmd' in the Type here to search box in the bottom left of your screen)
Step 4. Copy all of the contents of the file in the link to notepad (dont copy and paste from the steps, there are extra spaces in there), and save as filename.reg
You then import that file using Regisitry Editor (type 'registry' in the Type here to search box). Select the import option from the File menu (top of the screen).
Some instructions suggest running a firmware update tool to confirm the cable install has worked; but the tool doesn't work in Windows 10. Don't waste your time like I did!
Step 7. You can get Techstream 12 from here : https://mega.nz/#!9NBllR4R!v1hY8XHTcT-RBJfQypQ5zIDLypBDJ12LHy6zDqdNOFA I did virus check this, but . at your own risk. To extract this file you need to copy it to the desktop then open it with a zip program, such as Winzip. You may need to download that from somewhere.
Check the instructions.txt in the unzipped files. Theres a few simple steps to complete the install.
All working fine now. Just got to figure out how to get my copy of the workshop manual to fire up now. It doesn't seem to like new versions of Internet Explorer.
If you have MINI VCI J2534 cable clone with Techstream V12.20.024 to install on win8 64bit, you may have trouble even you followed the instructions from the CD and installed everything only to find error: Unable to connect to vim Techstream.
After troubleshooting the error, you may have new trouble.
If you run Techstream 10.10.018, it will work.
Here download link for Techstream 10.10.018 as well as Driver MVCI_Driver_for.msi.
Simple guide:
Firstly you need to stop windows from automatically installation the driver when plugging in the MINI VCI cable to the USB port.
Refer to the link below, if you don’t know how to do this. .
https://ccm.net/faq/35640-prevent-wi…ng-new-drivers
If the drivers are already installed, please go to device manager and uninstall the below:
“USB Serial Port (COM3)” in the “Ports” root menu AND “USB Serial Converter” in the “Universal Serial Bus controllers” root menu
Adobe acrobat xi pro 11.0.0 serial key. Secondly, please note: “FirmwareUpdateTool.exe” will not work on Windows 8/8.1/10
Skip this step, as this will not work.

Start Techstream from the Desktop shortcut. Chose your region, enter the deal information (you can enter anything). Go to Setup | VIM Select menu and select the “XHorse – MVCI”. Connect USB Interface cable to your car’s OBDII interface, turn ignition on, then click “Connect to Vehicle” in Techstream. It will take a few moments to connect and you can proceed with selecting your vehicle.
1. Connect USB cable to laptop
2. Start laptop
3. Start Techstream
4. Start Car (Can also be in ACC ON, but get better results generally with car in Ready)
5. Plug OBD to car
6. Connect via Techstream
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS Techstream on Windows 7, 8.1 – x64 bit
If you bought the MINI VCI J2534 cable and there is no unpacked driver on the disk, and there is only the MVCI Driver for TOYOTA.msi installer that does not really work when installed on any Windows x64 and gives an error, and it must be installed, otherwise the sw will not work, and it does not matter. This problem can be solved by installing the MVCI Driver for TOYOTA.msi manually as follows:
1. Create a folder on drive C: Temp
2. Copy to our C: Temp folder our MVCI Driver for TOYOTA.msi file
3. With Administrator rights open and run the following command:
msiexec / a “C: temp MVCI Driver for TOYOTA.msi” / qb TARGETDIR = c: temp mvci
this command will extract all content from the MSI file to the C: Temp mvci folder
4. We delete the file MVCI Driver for TOYOTA.msi from the folder C: Temp mvci, it is no longer needed, we can also remove it from the folder C: Temp
5. We go in C: Program Files (x86) and create there folder XHorse Electronics and in it one more MVCI Driver for TOYOTA TIS and move there all the contents from the folder C: Temp mvci
6. Connect the MINI VCI cable to the USB port.
IMPORTANT: When the automatic driver installation process starts, it must be canceled and the device will not be detected.
7. Open the Device Manager and locate the two faulty devices in the list. They will have a yellow icon indicating that Windows could not install the drivers for them. Now right click on the faulty device, select “Update Driver”, then “search on this computer” next “Browse my computer” … and specify the path to “C: Program Files (x86) XHorse Electronics MVCI Driver for TOYOTA TIS “(” include subfolders “check box). Click the “Next” button and wait for the drivers to be installed.
Now you should see two new devices: “Controllers USB USB Serial Converter” and “Ports (COM & LPT) USB Serial Port (COM —)”. Where instead of a line will be your figure COM port.
8. Next, go to the path “C: Program Files (x86) XHorse Electronics MVCI Driver for TOYOTA TIS” and run the file “FirmwareUpdateTool.exe”.
In the opened program, click the “Device Info” button. You should see the “connected device” graph filled.
If you see this, then your MINI VCI works under a 64-bit version of Windows and can be used by other programs, such as Techstream.
There is a connection with the cable!
9. Now install Techstream using the software “Techstream.exe” of any version. after installation do not run it yet.
10. To activate it, you need to change the TISFunction = 1 line in the C: Program Files Toyota Diagnostics Techstream Env IT3System.ini file and change it to “0” and save the file.
Now you need to make the program see the cable
So that Techstream sees MINI-VCI under Windows x64, the Registry should be changed like this:
1. Open the Windows Registry Editor, on Windows 8.1 x64, the path is:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SOFTWARE PassThruSu pport.04.04 DENSO CORPORATION – TIS Techstream VIM]
But there must definitely be a folder PassThruSupport.04.04 and it has a subfolder (I have DENSO CORPORATION – TIS Techstream VIM) it should have the following parameters
: “Name” = “XHorse – MVCI”
“Vendor” = “XHorse ELECTRONICS Co., Ltd.”
“ConfigApplication” = “C: Program Files (x86) XHorse Electronics MVCI Driver for TOYOTA TIS FirmwareUpdateTool.exe”
“FunctionLibrary” = “C: Program Files (x86) XHorse Electronics MVCI Driver for TOYOTA TIS MVCI32.dll ”
” APIVersion “=” 04.04 ”
” ProductVersion “=” 1.1.0 ”
Mini Vci J2534 Windows 10
“J1850VPW” = dword: 00000001
“J1850PWM” = dword: 00000001
“ISO9141” = dword: 00000001
“ISO14230” = dword: 00000001
“CAN” = dword: 00000001
“ISO15765” = dword: 00000001
“SCI_A_ENGINE” = dword: 00000000
” SCI_A_TRANS “= dword: 00000000
” SCI_B_ENGINE “= dword: 00000000
” SCI_B_TRANS “= dword: 00000000

Also there is a section
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE SOFTWARE PassThruSupport.04.04 DENSO CORPORATION – TIS Techstream VIM Parameter]
“Baudrate” = dword: 0001c200
“Comport” = dword: 00000005
“Connect” = dword: 00000000
“Interface” = “AUTOMATIC”
” Firmware “=” x ”
” LE “= dword: 00000000
” LN “= dword: 00000001
” SN “= dword: 00000000
But you can manually do nothing, but simply make changes to the registry by downloading and running this file .
2. Launch Techstream. Go to Setup | VIM select will open the menu in it should be “XHorse-MVCI”
3. Connect the MVCI cable to the USB interface, start the program, then click “Connect to Vehicle” in Toyota Techstream. If everything works, you will be asked to confirm the car / year / model, and if you connect to the car and start it, you will get access to the diagnostic interface.
The first thing to do was to turn off the orange American DRLs. other features stay tuned!
