o8 tundra traction control, vsc off light came on
So it's just getting broke in now at 237,457 miles and this morning when I started it up to warm up like I do everyday, it made a clunk sound like it was being put in gear and then the traction control light and vsc off light came on. The vsc off light is flashing y'all got any ideas?

My '08 Tundra did this after I tried to disengage 4-wheel drive while trying to make a sharp turn. Turned the truck off then back on and it cleared those lights but threw a check engine light. I had the code read (Don't know what code it was... something about center differential lock blah blah blah).
I cleared the code and haven't had any issues with it since. ( Been a few weeks)
Edit: If the 4-wheel drive light (either one) is flashing also, it could be stuck in 4-high or 4-low. Cycle the switch and see if it helps.

The main reason I'm asking if the low light was flashing is because we have a new TSB about the 07 and up tundras. The air injection pump fails, and it will throw the truck into a limp mode where the CEL, vsc, and trac off lights are on, the 4low light flashes and the truck is limited to 30mph.
-edit-guess i shoulda asked if the CEL was on also...
