I've used Torque pro for a long time for my previous gen2 Prius, but I didn't find PIDs for Corolla hybrid. Params for Prius gen4 and Corolla hybrid from ScanGauge website doesn't fit to my car.
So I've extracted them by myself.
Few comments:
1. To get cells voltages your adapter should work correctly with long responses (115byte)....

Has anyone here used the ODBLink MX with With Toyota's Techstream Lite?

And a related question; does anyone have experience with the Tachyon series of links?

Thanks in advance for any advice on these tools.

Hello Prius Chat Community,

I hope this message finds you all in good spirits. I'm reaching out to seek your valuable insights and expertise regarding the results I obtained from the DR Prius app after upgrading the hybrid battery in my 2014 Camry Hybrid.

Recently, I made the decision to replace the hybrid battery in my Camry with one sourced from a Japanese Camry Hybrid 2017, which had approximately 85,000 kilometers on it. Following the replacement, I...

I'm a bit stuck here. I bought one of those Toyota Mini VCI things off ebay, and although it came with the CD which I assume would have the driver, the CD is scratched and is unreadable. Contacted the seller and they're skirtiing my request for the driver to be sent to me as a download in an email or something... anyway.

Tried all the net for a copy of this driver. There's plenty of instructions and links to other links, but none of the links seem to work.

So can anyone be kind...

In torque the equation row has its green checkmark at the end but it gives me zero. The creating PIDs are OK.

Otherwise, is there a safety...

Here's a post where somebody is using Dr. Prius, and taps the READ BATTERY ERROR(S) button, and gets shown the text "HV battery ECU error code: P0A93".



That's kind of not quite right, as P0A93 isn't a code from the battery ECU, and it isn't a code about the battery.

There have been a number of posts across the forums where people ask about DTCs that simply aren't possible—not just codes that a Prius doesn't happen to use, but codes, for example, with A or E as the second character, when the second character of a sixteen-bit DTC can only ever be 0, 1, 2, or 3. In the cases where I've asked "hey, what tool gave you that code?", those codes seem to be coming from Dr. Prius.
