Maybe someone can help I went to future shop to have my idatalink ads-tb flashed to install in my new sienna from my odyssey. Installer was hesitant to help but told me when he hooked up my module he can only flash with Honda or Acura models. Can anyone verify or should I try with another place. Should I just order the directed pkall module? Thanks

A true ADS TB bypass module can be flashed with a myriad of different firmwares.  Here is a link to the iDatalink site for more info :

Just look up your Sienna to see if the ADS TB can be used as a transponder bypass for that year and model. 

Soldering is fun!

Thanks for the quick reply. I forgot to mention that he said this module must be the solo series. Anybody know if that makes a difference.

Yes.  A Solo series module comes pre-flashed with firmware for a specific set of vehicles.  You probably have the ADS TBSL HA bypass module.  It was made for certain Honda and Acura vehicles only.  As such, it can not be re-flashed with the ADS TB TL firmware for your Sienna.

Hardware wise, it probably is an ADS TB module.  They ( iDatalink ) use the modules embedded serial number to classify it as a Solo series and restrict the firmware flashes permitted.
