    Close TS, disconnect from the internet, and try again.

    Ok, it works.
    So when I plug it to my truck, and it requires internet connection.

    do you or anyone use the internet to do the tech stream on your Tacoma?

    You don't need the internet as it doesn't really give you anything useful. About all it will do is tell you if there is a TSB for your truck, but you won't be able to download it anyway.

    Mine does that too. Just click on the OK button and proceed. If you use it more than 30 times, you can reset the warning by editing "IT3usercustom.ini"

    Go to C:\Program Files\Toyota Diagnostics\Techstream\Env and find the ''IT3usercustom.ini'' file and look for ''Connectioncount=6'' or what ever number of times you tried and just delete ''connectioncount=X''. Click save and you will be reset back to 30

    That is great info. Some folks get the 30 use count down. I will add that to the ECU Update thread.

    It’s similar to what I used with Carista. Very interesting tho!


    It would be awesome if techstream can allow us to add Multi-Terrain Monitor. I have Front camera and side cameras on the mirrors. It's a '20 Tacoma TRD Sport.

    You're doing well. It is all a bit foggy the first time or two.

    :hattip:

    That's a good deal.

    Have you tried to flash a TSB yet?

    I don't know, mine is a '20. Not sure if there is ECU update for the '20.

    Out of curiosity (because of all the threads I've seen on it), can you use this to change your climate settings from C to F?

    Nice work! I have that same dialog pop-up every time regardless of internet connection. Can't believe it's that easy. Every time I try to sneak around software limits like this, I look for files to modify. Didn't cross my mind this time.

    Which Cable did you use? I have tried several versions of teachstream with an inexpensive cable with no luck

    Thanks
