2005 Explorer, blinking red light on dash

[Celt751]

There is a blinking red led in the center of the dash up against the windshield. I can't find any info about it. Does anyone else have this and know what it is for?

Isn't that pats?

does it say THEFT?

Probably just a visual indicator it has an alarm.

No, there are no markings. It's center dash against the windshield.
It blinks when the truck is off.
Must be an alarm wired to the horn.
I've owned the truck since 2016 and have been curious about it.

It’s just a visual deterrent. Almost all cars have then now.

That's what I'm thinking. Thanks for the reply

No. This isn't in the dash near the gauges. It's on top of the dash in the center against the windshield. I think it's for an alarm buI can't find any info on it. Was hoping someone here was familiar with it.
