How to stop the blinking.

[kewltrks]

Does anyone have this installed? I lock the truck using key fob. Light blinks, unlock it stops blinking.
Now it keeps blinking when its locked or unlocked. Truck has no issues of starting or any issues at the moment.
Anyone know how to fix this? Just curious on what it exactly does besides arms the alarm. Its annoying driving at night and you get this red light blinking at you. Guess i can cover it up.
Thanks

A car alarm installation shop would probably be your best bet. But, as a first step, I would try disconnecting the batteries for a bit and doing a hard reset on all the electronics.

@kewltrks, As @User113 has mentioned, an alarm shop may be able to help you. The biggest problem is, they may not have a clue about it as vehicle alarms change over the years and locations. Do you even know the brand? The one that I installed on the DW SUV has a valet switch, that when activated, blinks all the time. This tells you that it's in valet mode and not secure. Not sure if that would be the same with yours are not. Are you or a buddy good with tracing wires and using meters? I'd want to do some checking to look for loose wires or quick splices. Have seen a few quick splices cause some real damage! Good luck and keep us posted.

On the back side of that light is a reset button. Try pushing that and see if it stops. The blinking means it was set off.

I will try and do a reset like CJ8Rockcrawler mentioned, If that does not work I'll try alarm shop.
Thanks to All.
