thanks that is my backup plan if this launch one does not work, another function not mentioned here is the ability to make keys. Watching this video now on how to program keys

So i connected my launch elite to my 4runner, it did diagnostics but i did not see anything about changing functions. Looks like it is carista for me.

You likely don't have a proper Creader tool or it isn't up to date with the latest software.

That being said, I have not been able to find an authorized or official US source to order the Creader Elite v3.0 Toyota/Lexus so Carista remains the best option now.

I have this one, updated the software this morning. Creader Elite T (for toyota)
This should have the ability to make changes that you wish for. I believe you need to spend a bit more time with it. Start with the diagnostic menu it is in here somewhere. I don't recall the language Launch uses for the exact menu listing your looking for off the top of my head.

I wonder how even AI can know what goes on inside the ivory tow. Maybe I should stop posting my innermost thoughts on the internet

Can the Creader Elite be used to clear permanent hard codes for hybrid batteries, air bags etc after repairs ?
