vF Tuner for the 3.5L Tacoma

The answer is still the same.

Much appreciated, that did the trick and tune loaded fine. Was following the instructions for someone unregistered apparently.

 

I’m unable to clear codes on *.4. I can click the button, and it says they’re cleared successfully, but I still have cels. Anyone else try clearing codes on this newest build with success?

 

hmm, should be working fine, but if not, please update to x.x.x.x.5 releasing by monday

for everyone

it will also include READ TCU file support. We need you guys to start reading TCUs and submitting them so we can release full TCU tuning support

 

:banana:

Do you want any and all or looking for specific years/cal IDs?

 

Can we read TCU from say non Tacoma vehicles or do the stock files need to be in the root same as read ecu

 

copy, thanks

 

If I unlocked my VIN when I first loaded the program up, do I still need to go and unlock me ECU ID? It isn't showing any unlocked even though my vehicle was tuned.

 

you don't need to unlock the ECU unless you want to make edits yourself.

 

@lapoltba Thanks! So when I go to tune another vehicle, all I will need is their vin to unlock the vehicle and load up a tune using only 4 credits? Assuming I already have the tune pack for that ECU ID.

 

Yep, that's it. Make sure you have enough credits beforehand so you don't get caught with your pants down. 4 credits per VIN, internet connection requried when you "prepare ECU" and you're good to go.

 

4runners? 2nd gens???

 

Probably works for 2GT's but I'm assuming that the TCUs for 4R/GX is read-locked like their ECUs unfortunately

Happy Easter everyone who celebrates! This will likely be the final update for a while so we can get TCU support fully added prior to 1.3 major update

 

To update do we just redownload the program off the site?

 

Yes. Just download and install

 

I think it may for MT updates, but the AT updates more than one module. If it were to fail during the ECU update, then maybe? Otherwise, I don't imagine this new unbricking process would work for failed .cuw's.

 

Happy Easter everyone.

With 1.2.9.9.5 release we want to let everyone know our next step is straight through to 1.3.0

- updated tools for non Vf customers
- updated tunes for tunepacks
- custom features - map switching, some 4WD stuff
- TCU patching

While I don't want to post any timelines, I do want to say we are on track and excited.

I also want to post this here, and more info will be on our site ahead of time prior to release, that for certain patches, certain features, they will only be available on the latest revision of ECUs.
That means to get the latest and greatest, ECU updating is required.


Example:
16-17 AT trucks should be on 04B04
MT: 04B14

And 04A72....04B33...etc


Thanks all!
