AHC Computer on Amazon

[JBerger]

AHC does drop from high to normal above 19 mph, it's for both center of gravity and areo on my 06.
I've poked around with it on Techstream but never seen an option to turn off the speed limited heights.

Just checking in before I buy one. I mainly want it to read AHC pressures. Any difference between the one linked and the one labeled "elite"
The Elite is less expensive.

What was the answer? I bought the elite yesterday. Also THANK YOU OP for pointing this out. I have been screwing around trying to figure out to get sketchy ass tech stream software to work and was going to just pay the Toyota subscription but the cable was 500 dollars that they support and I just abandoned the effort.

The three things i most want out of this device.
- AHC pressures (this has been confirmed)
- Transmission temp reading so when you change out fluids you can do it properly
- ABS control for proper bleeding

All other things we’ll be bonuses

Not sure what's "sketchy" about it.
Buy cable off Amazon/eBay/Etc. "Mini VCI J2534 Cable" Its just an OBDII to USB cable.
Looks like this. Cable may or may not be clear.
Mine was like $30.

DO NOT USE THE SOFTWARE THEY PROVIDE. Its full of viruses and s***.
Install the stuff on an old junk laptop. Win 10 or older if you can. Bought a refurb Dell of Amazon for like $120.
It's just for TS it doesn't need to be fast or have a bunch of storage. Mine has 4GB RAM, i3, and a 128GB SSD. Hell a 64GB is more than big enough if you use it right.
Download "VirtualBox" and the TechStream version provided on here in the How-To: TechStream In 5 Minutes.
The TS image on here is Windows XP with the TS program installed.
Just run that image.
I'd plug in the USB after it loads just so it connects properly. You'll here the USB connection for the OS o the laptop followed by the sound of the USB connecting on the virtual machine (VirtualBox).
The first thing they play is what it sounds like on XP.

I use Techstream, and to be honest, it sucks running on an old slow pc in a VM. Does it work, yes. Is it cheap, yes. Am I very thankful someone made the effort to make this available, hell yes. But I am glad there are other options now.

This is what I want out of this device as well. Any folks with a unit able to confirm/deny these functionalities?

I do AHC and transmission with OBD fusion. I am almost certain it won’t do ABS bleed though.

I actually was doing AHC with it earlier this week and did see an option for ABS bleed. I don’t know if that button works. But there’s a button.

Or. Buy this device for the price of the laptop and it seems to work every time pretty painlessly. I think you were being tongue in cheek, but if you weren’t, I’m happy to debate why “plug in device. Press AHC button” was easier than ^^.

When you say "with it", is it referring to Fusion phone app or to the Launch Elite Toyota scanner tool? I think/hope you are referring to the Launch scan tool, and if so, can you confirm it works for Transmission temp reading when doing drain & fill?
