Default Event data recorder

Can someone please tell me where the 'Event data recorder' is located in the 2024 ES-350?
The manual talks about it, but does not say where it is.

Thanks.

It is stored in the ECU memory. You can download it using Techstream. It takes long though.

Thanks for your response!
Could you please tell me where the ECU memory is?
And also how I can find out more about the Techstream software?
How would you connect the software to the car?

First of all, you need a Win7 laptop (Techstream works best with Win7), from MHH Auto forums you download Techstream V15 software (this version is the best, all the functions are available) and they will give you a generated key after you pay $30 (after this you have unlimited downloads and keys).
From Ali/Ebay/Amazon you get this interface: MiniVCI J2534.

After you get all this and install the software, you connect it on OBD port of the car.

Mine seems to work fine on Win 11 but I am sure I don't use it to the extent ESh does.

Thanks very much ESh, this may come in handy in the future.
I asked my dealer to make a bunch of mods. He said he did them. So I'll just wait to see if it seems everything was changed correctly.

I've been doing a little research on the Techstream software.
It appears that the last version was released last year and they won't be releasing any new versions of the software.
Sunset Techstream

alex what model Lexus did you use your software on and which version did you use?

Any advice for software to use for a 2024 ES-350?
Thanks.
