Unknown Warning Light-help

[cockofthenorth]

Hi

I have a 1996 Toyota Rav 4 imported from Japan that i bought second hand a month ago; I do not have any manuals and today an amber light "O/D OFF" has appeared on dash. Anyone out there have any ideas what this means and more importantly how do i get rid of it.

Thanks very much

I'm sure this is telling you that the "overdrive" is turned off... look around the gear shift to see if there's a button that turns it on again.
