    hold the trac button down until that little yellow symbol pops up that looks like a car swerving, hold it past the AUTO LSD signal too..
    if you did this step right then i have no idea, and wait for someone else to chime in

    Op ... what were you in? 2hi? 4hi? 4lo?

    In 2hi & 4hi, if you hold in the VSC button, an icon with a car and two squigglies (like the car's skidding) will come up on dash & remain lit. You probably also will see a red "Auto LSD" light come on. This turns off traction control (which robs wheels of power) and turns on the electronic automatic limited slip differential, which distributes power between left & right but overall does NOT cut engine power.

    Some stuff. Not a lot, just some.
    Didn't you hear? In order to "Go Green" and save a few $$$, Toyota quit putting manuals in new vehicles. No one reads them anyway.
