'Car locked flasher'

Not sure what exactly to call it..... but I find it strange, and annoying, that there is not a flashing light in the car to confirm that doors are locked and the immobiliser etc is operative.


Comforting to be able to see this visual confirmation when I look outside at the car at night. Without it I have to get the 'zapper' and confirm it is locked.

I use the Automatic Mirror Folding function so that I have an easy visual to confirm the car locked.

Mine does it. Flashes twice when I lock it. Might want to check your settings.

He is referring to looking at the car for a small Led flash in the mirror or door pin awhile after its been locked

Yes I am..... but now that you mention it, what is the purpose of the door pins that pop up when you unlock?
