Trunk light stays blinking
 
2005 rx8 when car is off the trunk light stays blinking in the dash even though trunk is closed. I have open the trunk and recoded and nothing . So any ideas how to fix ? Bad relay or what? Thanks or input

I might learn something new here, but...


I don't think there is a dash light for the trunk.

Where is this light, and what does it look like?

You mean the TPMS light?

Read your manual dude lol...

I'll take a pic of it when I can and I don't have te owners manual damn dealer didn't have it but it looks like that security indicator light

RIWWP 03-21-2012 03:44 PM

Well, since we don't have any dash lights that just "look like another light but aren't it", then that means that it's the security indicator light, which does indeed flash when you aren't in the car, keys out of the ignition.


Congratz, your car is working normal.
