Some makes and models have a visual theft deterrent light. It doesn't do anything, it's just a visual deterrent for passer-by. It shouldn't drain the battery. Maybe the instrument cluster in your owners manual will show the lamp? It just depends on purpose of lamp. I can't see anything from here. You may need to check amp draw at battery? Just my opinion
