Asked by Guru99C5CK Oct 07, 2020 at 03:16 PM about the 2011 Toyota Prius

Question type: General

My dash is showing a red blinking padlock light.  The car is off.  What does
this mean?

Nope, neither. All doors are properly closed and security system is not armed. Could it be the battery in the fob needs replacement?

The theft deterrent is active . It comes on when the car is off doors are closed and alarm is not activated. Makes people think the alarm is on.
