Why is my OEM radio flashing at me?

Yeah so I have the CR-220 OEM radio in my cab. I just noticed right now the red light on the face is flashing once the key is out of the ignition.

I can swear it ever did that before....or am I crazy and it has been flashing all this time and I just noticed it now?

anyways..anyone know why it is flashing?

Yes, it has probably been on the entire time, but you can turn it off through the settings menu. To learn how to do that, RTFM.

While I am not 100% sure, I believe that it is letting you know that the anti-theft feature is active. "Don't remove power from me, or you will have to find that damn code again".
