I'm also curious if AHC pressures can be read...
Short answer, nope.
In the 100-series AHC architecture, the pressure sensor lived in the actively pressurized circuit of the AHC system
In the 200-series AHC architecture, the pressure sensor lives outside the actively pressurized circuit. It only has visibility when a valve opened to raise/lower the pressures. Techstream or the OBD port isn't fast enough for us to consistently capture the peak pressure set before closing the valve.
Would this gizmo be able to handle the "height offset utility" for us LX guys? My sensor lift is a bit cattywompus and needs fine tuning.
Man there are a lot of these things on Amazon. They range in price from $100 to $1000. Different models but also same model with different pricing. I assume that some of these are likely fakes as I don't even see some of these model numbers on the actual Launchtech web site. I'm not familiar with launch at all so maybe I'm just not seeing all the products.

In my defense, Africa and Brazil are similar in shape. And neither looks like the U.S.!
In my defense upside down west virgina looks like Austria
Can anyone confirm that this devices will work on copying keys for a 99 100 series?
I just got a Launch CReader Elite X500 TL. I understand it can be used to run ABS while bleeding brakes. I'm still learning the interface on this unit. Has anyone here done ABS bleeding on their LC 100?
The Launch unit already found some trouble codes I was unaware of: C1340 Open circuit in the differential lock, and C1776 front wheel speed sensor. Unfortunately it does not tell which sensor is bad (assuming each wheel has one).
I also got B2799 engine immobilizer system. I think that might be a phantom code since I've never had any issues with starting. BUT right after I got the LC, I tried starting it with the "dumb" key and it just cranked with no fuel since it did not detect a chip. That was seven years ago though.

I took a risk on the launch one. Mine is horizontal layout. It's ok but more like one of the app driven obd scanners than techstream. Definitely does all the OBD2 stuff and and some deeper canbus functional scans but I haven't seen any of the car setting options. It's ok but I'd not recommend one.
Launch Creader Elite 3.0 Bidirectional Scan Tool for Toyota/Lexus OBD2 Scanner
I am almost certain you can change car settings with that.
See post 262 of this thread. If you do not navigate the menus in the correct sequence, you can get stuck with only OBD2 functions which may be what you are experiencing
I just programmed a new key FOB / transmitter for my 2013 LX using the launch.
Get to this screen. Some users reported getting into an endless loop of only OBD2 scanner function and not being able to change settings. If you select Auto Detect or let it do it's thing this will happen.
I selected Lexus (do not select AutoDetect)
16PIN (North America)
My truck does not have radar cruise so I selected Others (not sure it matters though)
It correctly scanned my VIN and identified my vehicle
OK
