    P3140= the car equivalent of "your fly is down". LOL we have all been there. No worries. Good info about the Wifi on Techstream running independent. I have an old laptop I plan to use that runs windows 8 and had to use an old graphics driver to make it work and had to turn off automatic updates to prevent future problems.

    Read the scantool review thread. Dr Prius has some hybrid system data & codes (no sub codes), and can read ECM codes. It's handy to view all HV battery blocks at one time- that's mostly it.

    I really like the Autel AP200, but its adapter only works with that app. It seemed to work fine when I briefly tried it out on an iphone SE.

    You need another adapter if you want to also have Dr Prius- check their site for iphone compatible devices.

    So...ChapmanF post #15, and dolj post #18,
    You guys are right on it, delightful.

    My ground point was pretty rusty, and last I checked, I was indeed actually getting 11.95v, (not 0.1 or whatever I'd reported...)

    ChapmanF, post #17, I was getting
    B1442 and B2271, and B1421, but now also getting C1242. I am starting a new thread for that.



    Here is a link to the new thread, with different issues from this one....
