    I have a 2011 Prius bought new. Last night the indicator light began flashing. I don't know what to do about it. My manual does not talk about the light at all.

    I always blinks, but many don't notice it for quite a while.

    It means your car is locked.

    It blinks whether the car is locked or not.
