    Hi, I have a 2015 TRD Off road. When I shift into 4LO (after being in 4HI, fully stopped and in Neutral) the 4LO light stays solid and VSC/ TRAC lights are on as its suppose to be. The main thing I am wondering about is if there should be a beeping sound when 4LO is on?

    No beeping unless something is wrong. Beep is only when the 4LO is not properly engaged.

    If you have a 6 speed press the clutch pedal until it comes to the stop then put it into 4 hi or low (whichever you're trying to get into) and then the beeping should stop

    Well, im driving around and already in 4HI (automatic transmission.) While still in 4HI and stop the truck completely with brakes applied, push and turn the knob to 4LO. Then it'll just beep at me.

    In my manual trans, I need to have the brake applied and the clutch in. I'm sure you need to be in neutral with the brake applied in an auto. Beeping means it's not in 4 lo.

    getting into 4HI is okay, getting into 4LO seems to be a problem.

    You only need to be stopped and in N to get into and out of 4 lo. 4 hi is shift on the fly. Stopping actually makes getting into and out of 4 hi more difficult for the components.
