steveknight Posted May 6, 2022 Share Posted May 6, 2022 Having spent many hours online looking for the correct initialisation code to use Torque Pro with my Alphard, I have finally found a bluetooth reader / code combination that works on this model. It only took four months 🤣  So, I am using the VGate iCar Pro BLE 4.0. I have a no-name chinese ELM reader that doesn't work and another that I will give a go as soon as I get it out of the other car as the VGate doesn't seem to bluetooth connect with my head unit.  In Torque Pro for the initialisation string I used the preset for Toyota (JDM, Celica, Corolla, Camry) which is:  ATIB 96 ATIIA 13 ATSH 8113F1 ATSP A4 ATSW 00  I hope this might help someone.

steveknight Posted May 6, 2022 Author Share Posted May 6, 2022 It's amazing, without them I would never have been so confident to roll my sleeves up and change the head unit (and lots of other things) - you really helped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have exactly the same car as you on the same year and the same Vgate dongle (mine is ELM version 2.6) but cannot get this to communicate with the ECU. I've entered the string as you have kindly posted but it just doesn't work. I entered it as...  ATIB 96\n ATIIA 13\N ATSH 8113F1\n ATSP A4\n ATSW 00  Is that correct or am I doing something wrong? Should there not be any spaces? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
