The tips are for those that are currently trying to use the software Techstream V10.10.018 to change dealer settings on their BRZ/FRS with a MINI-VCI cable & Techstream. Having done Google searches for several hours, and I found that the way of installing TOYOTA Techstream V10.10.08 in 64-bit OS is almost the same as V8.00.034. Here is the ways of installing TOYOTA Techstream V10.10.018 in 64-bit OS, which is I revised on the basis of V8.00.034 (quoted from a forum). So do not care about the version in the following, just pay attention the steps.
Note: I have tried it in this way successfully, and maybe there exist risks; you should be responsible for what you do if you wants to have a try.
Equipment Needed: 1. MINI VCI cable for TOYOTA TIS Techstream. I bought mine from www.obd2diy.fr for nearly $27. The cable is about 4’ long, with translucent casing and “MINI-VCI J2534 Standard OBDII Communication Interface” sticker. This cable comes with a mini CD with drivers and Toyota Techstream software. 2. A laptop running 64-bit version of Windows 7/8. Mine is actually Windows 7 x64, but for Windows 8 the configuration procedure should be identical.
Steps: 1. Download and install a trial version of WinRAR (download from http://www.rarlab.com/download.htm) if you don’t already have it. 2. Using WinRAR Unpack the following files from either the mini-CD or the download to a temp folder on your hard drive (Use c:temp).
– Toyota Techstream 8.00.034 – Techstream_Update_V8.10.021 – MVCI Driver for TOYOTA – TIS KEY 3. Now open WinRAR again. Using the program, navigate to the temp folder with unpacked files and double click the TISKey.exe in WinRAR. The TISKey.exe is actually a self-extracting (SFX) RAR archive file. Once executed, it simply unpacks and copies the IT3System.ini file to the Techstream folder. Extract the IT3System.ini file to desktop for now. step 3 is no longer required after V10.00.028.

msiexec /a « C:tempMVCI Driver for TOYOTA.msi » /qb TARGETDIR=c:tempmvci
This will extract the content of the MSI file to the c:tempmvci folder. Go ahead and close the Command Prompt window, and open up the c:tempmvci folder : b. Delete the “MVCI Driver for TOYOTA.msi” there. (Now go into C:Program Files (x86) and then create a new folder called « XHorse Electronics » and then inside of that folder create another called « MVCI Driver for TOYOTA TIS ») Then copy the whole content of c:tempmvci to « C:Program Files (x86)XHorse ElectronicsMVCI Driver for TOYOTA TIS » c. Plug the MINI VCI cable to the USB port. d. Open the Device Manager and locate the two failing devices in the list. Both will appear with yellow icon (usually under “Other”), indicating that Windows failed to install drivers for them. Now, right click each failing device, select Install Driver, then “Browse my Computer…” and point it for « C:Program Files (x86)XHorse ElectronicsMVCI Driver for TOYOTA TIS » (enable the “include subfolders” flag). Click “Next” and wait until drivers are installed.
You should now see two new devices: “Universal Serial Bus ControllersUSB Serial Converter” and “Ports (COM & LPT)USB Serial Port (COM5)”. e. Run the FirmwareUpdateTool.exe from the « C:Program Files (x86)XHorse ElectronicsMVCI Driver for TOYOTA TIS ». Click “Device Info”. You should see the “device connected” screen like this: If you see this, it means your MINI VCI is up and running under Windows x64 and can be used by other programs, such as Techstream.
IMPORTANT: Some people have reported that updating firmware on this “cheap clone” cable may render it dead. So, the Firmware Update Tool should NOT be used for anything, but checking that the device is connected and working properly. 5. Now install the Techstream software using « Techstream 8.00.034.exe » and then after installation, open up the « Techstream_Update_V8.10.021.exe » file to update it. DO NOT launch it yet.
To activate it, drag the IT3System.ini you extracted before to the desktop over into « C:Program Files (x86)Toyota DiagnosticsTechstreamEnv ». When prompted, overwrite the preexisting file with the new one you are dragging over. 6. Registry Hack: for Techstream to recognize MINI-VCI under Windows x64, the Registry has to be modified as:
The attached « mvci-x64.reg » (download from https://www.dropbox.com/s/f51dyl9no17p3lj/mvci-x64.zip?dl=0 ) contains the *.REG file that has to be imported to the Registry (all you have to do in this step is just extract the file to the desktop, right click, then click Merge)
A trick here is the « Wow6432Node » in key path, which is the location the 32-bit applications running on 64-bit OS get redirected to when accessing Registry. The « PassThruSupport.04.04 » seems to be the place Techstream looks into for available VIMs (sub-keys appear in the « VIM Select » menu in Techstream). 7. Run Techstream. Go to Setup | VIM Select menu and select the “XHorse – MVCI” 8. Connect MVCI cable to your car’s OBDII interface, turn ignition on, then click “Connect to Vehicle” in Techstream. Wait. Then wait again (by the way, you’ll be doing that a lot with this cable). If everything works, you will be prompted to confirm car year/model after which you’ll get to the diagnostic interface. Note: If your software is lower than V10.10.018, please run Techstream. Go to Setup | VIM Select menu and select the “XHorse – MVCI” before step 3.
Just to clear it up, you do not have to register this software after this is all done, it is yours forever (almost). Mostly all of the customizable options can be accessed with this update so I would not mess with it and try to get anything new as it is not needed!
Hope this will help you really.

Cable for diagnosis Mini-VCI J2534
I post links for download: Toyota Techstream 10.10.018 , drivers MVCI_Driver_for.msi Then I will tell you how to install the driver and the program under Windows 7 or 8.1 x64. The instruction can be found on the Internet , but I will write it here.
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.
Msi Updates Drivers
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 ”
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!
