    The video should include the software installation process too. I bought the cable from Amazon and there is a CD in the box, but no document or instruction on how to install the program and every time I ran Techstream it asked for New Key to register and there is no key#. I found out that Patch file on the CD is the one to run to avoid the registration key.

  • @sjbman99

    Just want to thank you DIY-time for the detail instructions. His instructions still work. I have 3rd Prius and I lost my spare key. I purchased a replacement from online Toyota dealer with discount. Using Techstream program which came with OBDII cable, I could program my new key just as what the instructions was shown. So, it still works. However, to make the cable works, you need to follow the instructions came from CD exactly. You will need to copy included files to specific folder and install MVCI drivers from the CD. Those steps are very crucial. Local dealer charges way too much for key fob and programming.

      Fake review. You can't use the cable and software unless you pay more money for a "professional subscription". This major detail is left out of the video on purpose so stupid people, like myself, buy the cable and software for 30.00 thinking that is all they have to purchase, other than a new key. It is a SCAM.

    Hello, can a used smart key [for prius 2015] be unlocked, erased and set back to virgin with Techstream?
    I am trying to add a second key to my Prius 2015. I only know that one cannot re-prpgrammed a used key without it being "re-virginized" if the term applies?
    Thanks a million for any input you may provide. Have a nice day!

    • @DIYtimeTRD

      No, as far as I know TechStream doesn't have that ability. But you can use this service on eBay to get it unlocked for less than $20:

    I'm researching smart keys and noticed most are made by the same manufacturer and run on the same frequency. Is it possible to have a smart key from Subaru for example, be converted to the 433.92 MHz and then programmed to the vehicle? The Subaru Smart Key runs at 314.35 MHz but I noticed that frequency is country based and can be changed to the other frequency if the computer has the software available. I'm interested in installing Advanced Keys push button start system to the vehicle and according to their manuals, their system runs at 433.92MHz. That's why I'm interested in seeing if it's possible to do so with the Subaru key if they were to work at the same frequency and then follow the Advanced Keys smart key programming instructions.

    Worked on my 2017 ct200h. The steps where diff there was no year or engine code or smart key option. It knew the car and vin I just chose the 1st thing in option on both sections. Then when you get to the yellow list choose entry & start. Then it will show a blank page then hit the utility button then the key code registration was there hope this helps also I just let the company that I bought the cable from remote load it on my laptop. From the disc you get from them you need to load the team viewer program then open it and send them an email with the with all the numbers that pop up when u open it for them to remote load it. You need to have the disc in your laptop and the cable hooked up to a USB port make sure it's a 2.0 not a 3.0 USB port I tried it on my new laptop and it would not work because of 3.0 USB. Also you need to be online. I hope this helps just one person. Thank you for your vidio!!

Everything works fine except the trunk in the Lexus and the liftgate in the highlander open buttons. I hold it down and nothing happens. When I use the original keys, the trunk and the liftgate open. I bought used keys that were reset by ebay seller so they were virgin. I checked the model numbers on the key and inside the key. They match. Any idea what the problem may be? I checked the "customize" section of the techstream and the trunk-open setting is set correct to open when the button is pressed for 0.8s, hence original keys do work in that mode. Does the trunk button have to be programmed separately? Appreciate the help.

    I have techstream on a windows 7 laptop and was able to program one lexus smart key fob in addition to the original one, but for some reason the third remote I have will not program, even though the program says I have 2 programmed and 5 additional spots available. I tried it in classic mode and the other mode as well. After tapping the original key to the start button and getting the one beep and then touching the virgin remote to the button, Instead of getting two beeps, it only gives off one beep and then fails to program. I have tried to program a 3rd remote several times with 2 different remotes that were reset or "virginized" by a Locksmith company. The second remote that I was able to be successfully program came from the same place as these, so I am at a loss. Any tips or insight as to why I can not get a third remote to program even though there is space to do so?

    • @DIYtimeTRD
      @DIYtimeTRD  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      You can try to delete your second remote and check if third remote would program after that. If not, it’s probably not unlocked properly, defective or incompatible. Also, open up your original and third fob and compare the numbers on circuit boards. They might be it the same/for different frequencies.
