Are you talking about the ambient lighting up by the homelink buttons? They come on with the headlights, and shine down on the shift knob area.

 

Can't be the light he's talking about haha

"points outside towards the hood"

"only comes on when the key's out"

Must be an aftermarket installed LED.
Could be an LED to deter thieves

 

I agree with guitarplayer16 cause my car has nothing like that to my knowledge.....

 

the only other thing (stock anyway) that I can think of is the sensor on the BACK side of the rearview mirror, but its doesn't light up.
He must have something added on or just isn't describing it very well.

OP, you need to post a picture of it.

 

I called the dealership they said its a night light, but sjould go off when doors closed in this case they dont.... Oh on that black box it says FM Tw-130.....????

 

^^ What?!?

 

where u move this?

 

Don't you love it when people come in here and post questions but make no sense, leave out the details, and ignore everyone's response?

 

take a pic and upload it so that we can see what you are talking about. Everyone here is confused on this light you descibed. We have theories, but unless we see a pic, we cannot really help you out too much.

 

+1.. Post pics West so we know exactly what you're talking about.

 

ok heres 3...the last one shows the blue light

 

im gonna fkin hang myself this thread has so much fail in it.

ill help you. Get link to your pic [img][/img]

 

Its part of the service indicator system for non-drive train components such as the blinker fluid, wiper lubricant, and brake dust gage.

 

All right guys, I just emailed him instructions on how to post pictures, so hopefully later we will get to see some.

 

ok i have pics now

 

the middle pic shows the light on in the dark

 

its your aftermarket alarm's antenna led's

 

i dont have one..i have the alarm that came with it...any why it stay on all night even when i cut the alarm off?

 

yeah this isint that standard alarm. What year is your TL?
Mines an 08 i dont have that light. Only alarm lights are red and on the door.

 

2007 ...on that box it said fm tw-130 ....oh and its factory radio with a/c no nav

 

remote start

whats your aftermarket key fob model? or pic of it.

 

its remote start, i have a viper smart start and have the same thing i believe that's the keyfob antenna though not the smart start module

 

Ok so how i use it? I cant cut light off n no button to remote start

 

Vipers led are on the bottom of the antenna not pointing forward.

Do you even have the key fob?? if not you might need to order a new one. you can look what the model of the alarm or start of it, by looking under your dash.

 

this is the key i have

 

you could have the viper system which you can use the oem keyfob to lock and unlock your car and have your oem car alarm and your viper car alarm with remote start, but you would need the viper key fob in order to start the car.

you need this key fob if you have the viper to remote start.

but i cant tell you anything else becuase we dont know what aftermarket system you have. You will have to look under your dash or have best buy or some automotive eletronics installer look for you.

 

huge pics

 

the system i have is the vss4000 which is pretty much a kit made by viper pairing a smart start module with a normal remote start though i dont know which remote start it is. Your antenna looks exactly the same as mine, the blue led usually only flashes while the car is locked and not driving.


thats my remote so id guess its the one you need

 

Yea it dont flash just stays lit with doors locked n unlocked

 

Jus goolged the name on the box....fm tw-130 and it came up with a nav...one proble this car dont have a nav jus the ac xm n cd changer

 

When I searched it, it came up as an antenna.



I think a previous owner had some kind of remote start installed. Take your car to any car stereo installation shop, and explain to them the problem. See if they can look at your car and find EXACTLY what was installed, and go from there.

 

if you feel confident enough, open up your driver side kick panel and see what youve got installed down there
