Why is there a small red light flashing continuously on the Civic dashboard?

[VanPreston]

After turning off the engine, a red dot keeps flashing on the dashboard, which is the working indicator light of the engine electronic anti-theft system. The function of the anti-theft indicator light: The car anti-theft system is working, indicating that the car anti-theft device has been activated. The car anti-theft indicator light is part of the anti-theft system. As long as the car is parked and the doors are locked, the anti-theft indicator light will keep flashing, whether it's day or night. However, during the day, due to the light, it's less noticeable that the anti-theft indicator light is flashing. How to disable the anti-theft indicator light: Open the engine hood and look for the alarm. Refer to the car maintenance manual to locate it. Usually, the car's anti-theft computer is installed under the steering wheel. Disconnect the power input line from the central connector of the anti-theft device. The anti-theft device will then be deactivated.
