First check the following:
●Is the fuel empty?
If it is, fill the fuel tank immediately.
●Is the fuel tank cap loose?
If it is, tighten it securely.

If the brake system warning light or the malfunction indicator light also
comes on, or the low speed four-wheel drive indicator light or the center dif-
ferential lock indicator light continues to blink after taking the specified steps,
there may be a malfunction in the engine, the brake system or the four-
wheel drive system. In this case, you may not be able to transfer between
“H4” and “L4” modes, and the center differential lock may not be able to be
locked or unlocked. Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer imme-
diately.
