The manual is online
https://www.toyota.com/t3Portal/docu...f/OM35B48U.pdf
“Rear differential lock indicator light (if equipped)
Indicates a malfunction in the rear differential lock system
 Have the vehicle inspected by your Toyota dealer immediately.”

Did you try pressing it again?

Try the button again, and drive forward a few feet. Sometimes the locker doesn't disengage until you do that.

in 4lo,

with the diff lock turned off, and the light is still flashing,
roll ahead a few feet and crank the wheel from side to side. More than you think-- like hand over hand on the steering wheel while rolling 5-10 feet.

you'll hear a loud 'crack' when it disengages, and the light should turn off.

(the crack sound is normal, believe it or not)

Turn the steering wheel side to side when trying to lock and unlock. It will help it out. Also you have to be in low range.
