Default what's that red flashing light under dash

I disconnected my battery today and when I reconnected it there was a short blast from the horn. I didn't think anything about it and went on with what I was doing. My son was standing by the car when I got in and he asked me "what's that flashing light", I said where? He said "under the dash", I leaned over to see what he was talking about and this little light is making t flashes about every 2 seconds. I hooked my preditor and there were no trouble codes. The light is on a very small squre oplast part that has something like a little reset button on the end opposite the light. Anyone have any ideas????????

The horn blast is normal. Not sure about the light. Can you take a picture of it?

Do you have a aftermarket alarm system? Did you push the button or lite to see if it stoped?

I did push it, but it didn't change anything. The alarm that I have is the ford provided alarm, its the one that if the vehicle is moved or bumped with a bit of force it will go off

We should have asked, did the car start? I know some times when I set my alarm on my truck off I have to turn the key on and then off to get the red alarm lite off.

Maybe it's GB keeping tabs on you.

Does it look factory installed or like one of those dealership add-ons?

That was nice of them to tell you you had an after market system.

I wonder how many of us have the same aftermarket system? I have the same thing; couldn't mess with it to customize my car like some of you guys did, with that long thread about the alarm and the reset button...

UpDate!!!! the alarm was not aftermarket but part of the "Active Anti-Theft" alarm. right now it is in "valet" mode which means that if you don't know to push the button, even with the key the car will not even turn over..........I kind of like that living here in dallas. I will have to take it in to have it reset, that would mean the CAI would have to come off, and backup tune reinstalled. I don't want to do that because just tonight I go that ***** screamin after geeting the "Airaide tune" from Diablo
