Suggestion
My experience with one of my cars is when there is something wrong in the security related system/circuitry -- in the case of my Boxster a door lock assembly -- a tech with access to the proper Porsche diagnostic computer can use this to access the car's security control module and test/check various circuits/components and check for any logged errors which will help him identify the cause of the behavior.
Leading evidence: 'probably nothing you can address' (no explicit attributable resolution; this is a reported action or suggestion). Across 1 matching discussions, the most frequently mentioned possible cause is 'probably nothing you can address' (1 discussions; 0 report identifying it and 1 suggest it). The most frequently discussed action is 'Check any logged errors' (1 discussions). For that action, 0 discussions report a resolution and 0 report an unsuccessful attempt. No action has an explicit, attributable resolution report under the current rules. These are forum reports and suggestions, not a confirmed diagnosis.
Source reports, not a diagnosis or a success probability. Counts refer to discussions and can overlap.

Suggestion · Original poster
So not sure what it is but if it comes back I'll probably have to take it in to get a diagnostics test run on it.

Suggestion
After checking where I could, I think I would be asking a Porsche Garage to run their scanner on the alarm system.
These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.
4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

0 evidence records excluded for query context · 0 excluded by outcome qualification · 1 adjusted by outcome qualification.
1 acknowledgements have no verified action link; they do not establish a repair result.
Just noticed when I went out to the garage to grab the presents in the trunk that my alarm light on the dash is on solid and not blinking as it usually does when I lock the car.
I thought maybe I had bumped my key or something so I clicked twice and made sure the car was unlocked but still nothing. I then closed all doors and frunk plus trunk. Still no difference.
If I lock the car it still stays on and I noticed even with the ignition on it remains lit. Bt I generally leave the car unlocked in the garage and right now it is sitting there with the light on solid.
Any idea what this could be? I did a search but only found one thread about an aftermarket accessory causing the problem.
Thanks everyone!
Did you hear the horn beep one time when locking the car? If so, something is still opened. Or maybe something as simple as a blown fuse? Check how the system copes with someone being inside the car but still locked. I think there is a toggle switch on the dash. Essential Companion may cover that part of the alarm system. After checking where I could, I think I would be asking a Porsche Garage to run their scanner on the alarm system. Good luck and let us know what you find.
The cause is probably nothing you can address. You should consider taking the to a shop that can use the proper diagnostic computer and query the security module for any errors.

There was no horn indication or anything else unfortunately.
But this morning I went out to the garage and it was blinking again. Unlocked it and now there is no indicator (as it should be) and all seems okay for now.
So not sure what it is but if it comes back I'll probably have to take it in to get a diagnostics test run on it.
Thank you Hurdi and Macster for helping out!
