What does it mean when a red light flashes after locking the car?

[JocelynLee]

It is normal for a red light to flash after locking the car. This is the car key light, and if the car engine anti-theft light flashes at a frequency of once every 1 to 2 seconds, it is normal. The flashing indicates that the car has entered the anti-theft state, and the engine anti-theft system has started to function. After the car anti-theft lock is activated, the owner does not need to deactivate it, and the power consumption of the anti-theft light is extremely minimal for the car battery, so there is no need to worry about excessive power consumption. Most cars are equipped with an anti-theft system, which is very important for the vehicle. With the advancement of technology, the anti-theft systems in cars have become increasingly sophisticated, making it more difficult for criminals to successfully steal a car.
