Sat Nav LED flashing

Just drove back from Glastonbury and I noticed the centre red LED flashing on the sat nav. Did it along the M5 then stopped. Just started doing it again now.

Anyone know what this is?

If its one of the 3 lights at the top right near the screen, its for telephone connection.

Mine goes red when I walk off with my mobile whilst its paired to the car. Though as yours comes on whilst driving, it may not be that !

Also comes on if you lose signal, under a tunnel or in a bad area etc.

Here you go - found it.........

If thats the light you mean............

Its not a centre red light, so I could be totally barking up the wrong path........... 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

Mines the centre light.

I think I've sussed it now. It appears my phone wasn't connected even though I could still access the phone book through the steering wheel. I went into Bluetooth settings on my iPhone and it was showing Not connected.

BMW don't give a description for the centre light, as you can see. It must be a secret ! 2011 Range Rover Vogue SE 4.4 TDV8

Centre light flashing means that the right hand light is broken
