The red light you see is the indicator light for your security system/ PATS key showing it is active while vehicle is not running. should go out with key in and/ or turned on if the key is coded for your car.

Do you have an alarm system installed? These sound like the alarm indicator lights. They are supposed to deter theft and break ins.

Just got a 2011 equinox and there is a light sensor in the middle of of the top of the dash just under the windshield. Now that it is dark, noticed that it blinks. Is this supposed to be like that? know...

This light should blink when the vehicle is shut off, but it should stop blinking after the vehicle is started. If it doesnt stop blinking when vehicle is running, i would suggest taking it back to the dealer, there may be something that needs to be reset.

Hope this helps..

Our chrysler concorde LXI 2000 has a blinking red light at the very top of the dash board where the dash and the window meet. What is this light. It continues to blink even when the car is off.

Its a built in alarm. If im not mistaken when you exit you vehicle, push the door lock button from the driver side, clothes all doors, and your lights should flash. If there is no remote for it, turning it off you will have to put the key in the ignition and turn to on.
