Where did you find this? I have the same code and I haven't called any dealers yet, but I can't find it on any of the diagrams or parts sites.
Thanks!

its actually a relay. if you open up your hood there is a black box right in front of the drivers side. pop that box open and there is a grey square, thats the relay. My transmission was replaced along witht his item so i dont know for sure which was the culprit. my car is an electrical shitbox

Oh, ok thanks, phee! I'm beginning to wonder about mine too. The locks don't always work and my little security light on the driver's door isn't working, but I tested the alarm to be working. Also I have a pink headlight on the driver's side. Nice....

I recommend you change your headlight bulbs. The pink is an early warning sign that they are about to go out. Replace them in pairs and go with the kaixen bulbs. The reason your car will not lock sometimes is probably because you leave your lights on when you exit the car, flip the lights off and luck away! As for the little bulb not blinking.... Could be another blown bulb. Take the door panel off and replace with your favorite color led. You may need a sodering iron. Search around for this mod, someone has done it.

^^^^^ Agree.
The car will lock with the headlights on. The headlights will shut off by itself after a few minutes. Next time you disarm the car, the headlights will come back on automatically.

Yeah, it locks with the lights on. And I guess the security system is working even though the LED isn't. Oh, and I switched positions on the bulbs and it's definitely bulbs. 6000K Kaixen's are on the way!! Thanks all!
