    Damn, I'm out of ideas. Can't get my head around why 4lo works but TOD doesn't and has no fault indication.
    There's no 'I' in denial.

    Just a WAG

    but does your fault light up on start up? Maybe the bulb is burnt out so you do not see (or removed by previous owner or something?) try taking it to a parts store for a FREE code reading

    Cirmand,
    It does light up when I start up, Can advance auto read TOD codes? Had it at the old Isuzu dealership about a month ago and no codes came up. Me thinks it's the t-case Maybe the clutch packs

    TOD codes are read differently than CEL.

    There won't be any codes though unless the TOD light is flashing.

    Nothing flashing, by TOD indicator do you mean the CHECK light or AUTO light? Maybe I'm missing something

    I'm not in front of my VX dash right now, but I THINK that there is a TOD "idiot light" on the bottom of the gauge cluster where all of the other warning lights are. There is a long row of warning lights at the bottom of the gauge cluster and I think the TOD light is on the left somewhere. As others have said, if this light was on or flashing then the previous owner may have removed it, or it may just be burned out.

    I have a spare gauge cluster at home that I can take a picture of if you can find the TOD warning light on yours.
