UPC: Compatible OS: Windows XP 7 8 8.1 10 (32 and 64 bit) Description. The MINI-VCI J2534 V1.4.1 USB Interface is a high quality 3rd party communication interface that works with the TIS Techstream software for Toyota and Lexus vehicles in all regions worldwide with multi-language support. Solved: Windows 10 driver for Mini VCI cable (J2534) For those that are using EBay/Amazon Mini VCI cables, the driver fails on Windows 10. These are the only instructions that I found that worked. Make sure to remove the old drivers first.
Following info is adapted from here. Another site with a similar instruction. If you do not have the software and drivers, a vender from amazon provides a link for download.
TIS Techstream V10 Setup Instruction ( !!! for 64 bit system !!! ) :
- The Techstream version 12* and above should be compatible with Windows 10 64 bit system.
- Installed and follow through instruction.
- Start Techstream and input Area, then shutdown
- copy Mainmenu.exe in Bin folder under installation folder.
- start Techstream and input registration code.
- unzip the MCVIDriver.msi, move the contents under “C:Program Files (x86)XHorse ElectronicsMVCI Driver for TOYOTA TIS”.
- 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). Click ”Next” and wait until drivers are installed. You should now see two new devices: ”Universal Serial Bus ControllersUSB Serial Converte” and ”Ports (COM & LPT)USB Serial Port (COMx)”.
- 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.
- Now install Techstream software using “Techstream_Setup_V12…exe” on our software CD
Software Registration: copy the two *.ini files in ”Registration” folder to “C:Program Files (x86)Toyota DiagnosticsTechstreamEnv
Attention: It’s C:Program Files (x86) not C:Program Files , BIG DIFFERENCE !!!
- Registry Hack: Run the mvci-64bit.reg file (here for download) to modify the registry for Techstream to recognize MINI-VCI under Windows x64
- Run Techstream software. Go to Setup | VIM Select menu and select the ”XHorse — MVCI”
- Connect Mini VCI cable to your car‘s OBDII interface, turn ignition on, then click ”Connect to Vehicle” in Techstream. Wait. Then wait again. If everything works, you will be prompted to confirm car year/model after which you’ll get to the diagnostic interface.
Important Note:
- DO NOT change the “User Type” when you will run your TIS Techstream for 1st time! LEAVE IT with the Default option! “Official” Dealer/Repairer with other words…
- in [ VIM Select ] option, please select the [ Xhorse — MVCI ], not [ TIS Techstream VIM ]
- If you get the following reminder while using the program:
