Engine Immobilizer Light Blinking with Power Off
 

The engine immobilizer light blinks but only with power off. Power on or accessory mode - no light.
Engine starts fine, and I drove it a hundred highway miles last night with no apparent issues.
It's a red light with a half an automobile and half a padlock icon. It's the New Year's weekend. So no dealers to ask.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Yup, that’s what it does... just about every car I’ve owned does this. It blinks primarily as a theft deterrent.

It was the coolest shit in the 90's with the blinking red LED on the door or top of the dash once you arm the alarm.

Now they are cheap and just put a blinking icon on the dash itself.

Says what it does in he owner manual.

That was a much more polite way of saying RTFM! :bellyroll:
