Default Emergency flashers and security light

Why does the red security light stay lit after the emergency flashers have been turned off? It stays lit until the ignition switch has been turned off. Maybe it's always done that and I just never noticed, but I still don't know why it is. Any ideas?

the book says that if the Light is solid for more than 4 seconds with ignition on.....then there is a current DTC (diagnostic trouble code). You will have to pull the codes to find out which code is set.

Yea, I didn't think about checking for a code while it's lit. No codes otherwise.
