Why does the dashboard red light flash after the CRV is turned off?
1 Answers
This is the indicator light of the Honda CRV's anti-theft system. It is normal for the small red light to keep flashing, and it will turn off after unlocking. Here are some related details: 1. Anti-theft system: The car anti-theft system is a device designed to increase the difficulty of car theft and prolong the time required for theft. It acts as a guardian for the car, preventing theft of the vehicle itself or items inside. 2. Principle: A typical electronic car anti-theft system contains an integrated chip with some switch gates. When an external trigger voltage is applied, the switch gates open and output a positive voltage to the drive circuit, which then activates the actuator and alarm circuit. The external voltage is controlled by sensors or switches, ensuring both concealment and resistance to tampering.
