Parts CD - anyone got one
#26
I got them to work. First thing to do is extract the files. Do not burn the EPC1 and EPC2 folders themselves, but only burn the files and folders inside them. Then, when you burn, rename the disc to 19950622E1 for EPC1 and 19950322E2 for EPC2.
This is all specified here: http://www.yankeetoys.org/Documents/EPC_FAQ.htm
Then you have to install. Insert the first disc and goto the EPC folder. Here you will find a setup.exe and a readme.txt.
the readme text will tell you how to set it up. I believe you MUST set it up for the European version. After installation, don't forget to set up the cd as specified in the readme and below.
Don't know quite how to use the program yet, but that got everything working. hope this helps

The person who wrote this program for Toyota needs to be kicked in the balls ninja style. I have spent a good hour dicking around with it and I get nothing but a Toyota parts screen that is worthless. I have tried CD set up as per instructions.
After all this I give BMW credit where credit is due they sell their parts CD over the counter and it installs like a breeze.

Yes it is out of date however, so are our vehicles. Looking up the correct current parts number is as easy as looking up your part # with the EPC, then going to a parts website and they do the cross-check for you & give up to date part numbers. This has worked pretty well for me. Glad I got this program going.

Howdy Folks:
Dunno how good the EPC off torrents is: I pulled it yet the North America parts was corrupt - I asked another site and someone says they have the 2007 edition - dunno if they will share
As for cross referencing - I have diesel Toyota's now - LN 67 and 2 BJ60's - the Toyo dealer I use keeps telling me - Bad No.s - or no longer available - so I have to order my parts from other countries
Hope someone shares an updated version - I purchased one 4 years back specific for Landcruisers - for 5$ - sure an old version but just to have the fotos to email to parts counter is great
Cheers:

I really don't know why this software HAS to be so coveted. There is no real reason Yota can't make this available to everyone who wants it. I talked to the guy at the parts counter up in ST peters, MO last week & he said that the EPC they have is actually like 3 programs working together. Not sure of the truth in that, but if it's the case that is silly.
As far as the updated versions people claim to have, they need to put up or stop starting rumors.

I have the older EPC running off my thumb drive, it's kind of nice to be able to hook it up to a friends PC and bring up nice pics and part numbers.
