Default Dashboard blinking light

Hi. I have a CT 200 and my dashboard light at the corner keeps on blinking until power is off. Any input or suggestions appreciated.

You need to provide much more detail. The warning symbols on the dash are explained in your owner's manual.

Just a guess: if it's a yellow light in the lower right corner it could be the tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) light. If it blinks several times after you push the Start button and then stays on constantly it indicates a fault in the TPMS. It could be a transmitter that has failed (this happened to me) or simply that the TPMS needs to be reprogrammed.

Thank you to all who responded. I checked the tires air pressure and found one tire with low air pressure. Corrected it and the blinking light disappeared. My Lexus is smooth and fun to drive now. Going to enjoy my holiday break. Again, my heartfelt thanks to all. I wish you all Happy Thanksgiving! Happy moments to enjoy with your loved ones.
