Help! What is the button to the right of the hazard button?!
Asked by ebernard Oct 27, 2013 at 08:56 PM about the 2014 Ford Escape Titanium FWD
Question type: General
This button has what looks like a picture of a padlock on it. It does not push in, it just lights up randomly. Not knowing what that "button" is for is driving me crazy! I checked out page 278 in manual as someone suggested. If it is the parental lock, what is it? And there is no way to change it as it doesn't push at all. And there is nowhere to use the 1234 code. Help? Anybody?

It should indicate that the passenger air bag is disabled. It disables if you place items on your passenger seat (or dog in my case) that is greater than (dont quote me) 25 lbs but less than 75 lbs. it's a child safety device.
Thank you, samuelrocky! It was driving me nuts!

It indicates that the doors are locked. I found this someplace in the owners manual. Lock you doors--light on. Unlock doors--light off.
I am curious which answer is correct ? The air bag indicator or the doors being locked

Car with lock symbol keeps flashing every 3 to 5 sec only when my car is turn off and stops when its running. What does that light mean and should it be flashing. Fyi I just installed a new computer and replaced all 6 coils
Its a ford escape 2005
When running shoud i get out and let it warm up when its cold out
