I have a 2014 Tacoma the four-wheel-drive light started flashing red

I have a 2014 Tacoma four-wheel-drive light flashes red I put it in a long high worked fine for low worked fine took it out it all seems to work fine but the light is flashing red

 

Is there an x over the rear axle on the light?

 

Yes it's below the green one that comes on when in 4x4

 

I don't have a 2nd gen but doesn't that indicate that the Rear Diff lock is trying to engage? I didn't think that the 4x4 indicator light flashed red, just the RR Diff lock light...?

 

If you have a TRD OR model, make sure the diff lock button to the left of the steering wheel isn't pushed in (unless you want it to be).

 

Yeah, its the diff lock light. If you are in 2x4 just hit the locker button. Light should go away

 

That's not it I locked and unlocked the differential, different lights come on for that. And yes it is a TRD off-road. No modifications

 

Post a pic of it

 

The green light is because I put it in four-wheel-drive that works fine the red light blinks all the time

 

chem light battery is low

 

? Chen light. ??

 

sorry im retired and a day drinker, goodnight

 

I believe thats the diff lock light. If you press diff lock what does it do? Have you tried putting it in neutral? Reverse and forward a bit to see if it engages/disengages successful?

 

That's your diff locker light. Make sure the button is in the disengaged position and try driving for a bit. If it's blinking it's trying to engage/disengage the locker. With the button depressed it should stop blinking and go out after a short drive.

 

You may have to drive for a bit and make some shallow turns to fully disengage the locker.

 

Why don't you take a second and look at your rear axle, and see if the wires are connected as they should. That's an easy place to start.

 

Read your year's vehicle manual, it should give you a clear explanation specifically about that indication.

 

yeah it seems to happens after my mid day nap
