    In the USA it is asked me for no subscription and no money on the max AP app that I'm using because the AP200 said so I downloaded it from clicking on that stupid thing on the packaging now if I all of a sudden want to select Aston Martin or some nonsense I have to pay for that That's a fact. And rather than pay for that on a reoccurring yearly basis or whatever that turns into would seem me I would just buy another $56 device and select the car that I'm going to use it with and leave it in the glove box. That avoids the subscription fees now if you're going to be one to have 16 different cars I guess that could get expensive and you might could pay for a max 808 tablet system but most people this isn't a thing.

    Okay I had to reread your business and look on my nonsense again The Maxi AP app if I'm not mistaken is the one you use for the 2500 It's the non maxi app I think I believe is what I'm using with the AP200 right on my screen the red icon for the AP200 is not involved with Maxi at all​

    No the Maxi AP app is for the 2,500. And the other red app from this manufacturer is the one that I use for the AP so on my phone screen the one that has the MAXI does not go with the AP200 that goes with the red and black 2500 The other red icon for the scanner is the one I clicked to use with the white AP200 that's probably where your problem is Good luck

    QUOTE="Tombukt2, post: 3461679, member: 188908"]Are you in another country or something Gino let's get that out of the way I guess first.? I'm in the USA I didn't have to buy squat I bought the device online on Amazon for $56 if I'm not mistaken The minute I cut it out of the blister pack All I had to do was load up the max AP app it goes with the Max scanner and other things in the Max series of a u t e l stuff. And then I had to make an account login to set account select the Toyota business as my primary download the Toyota 109 MB file that's right over here on the screen and that works with the AP app the max app right above that I have the 2500 app because I still have that stupid thing[/QUOTE]

    Yes you want the AP200 not the 25000. But the 25 I think should still give you all of your codes ABS and all of it It may not be able to bleed the brakes but it should be able to get you all of your codes so I'm not sure maybe you have a problem with your OBD2 port in the vehicle which happens

    Yes you have the $2,500 so you need to use the $2,500 app which you can mess with by scanning the QR code on the side of the 2500 black and red device at least that's what I did on mine the $2,500 should still be able to read all of your codes I do believe It should not just blank out on your ABS codes I don't think that's right I'll go out and plug my 2500 up within the next hour and see I can make a break code happen in a second and the $2,500 should pick it up the $2,500 will not bring up the bleed menu for the brakes but that's a long way away from reading codes so if you're not able to read codes with the right software for the device you're using then I would be looking at possibly they're being a problem with the OBD2 port in your car which has happened more than once right here there's a pin that should have voltage from the battery and so on and so forth you can Google OBD2 port on an '08 Prius for the pin outs wouldn't be the first time that's for sure.
