[Red LED continuously on 3 inches left of the steering column]

There is a small  red LED about 3 inches left of the steering column outside the instrument cluster in my wife's car.   It is lighted 24/7 and I have no idea what it is for.  Bought the vehicle new so there are no  modifications whatsoever.  Nothing is in the owners manual or even acknowledging its existence.  I attempted to trick it into doing somethings by tripping the alarm from both fobs and  as many combinations as I could and it id not even flicker.   It just stays on.   No identification whatsoever.

Since I seldom drive this vehicle I did not notice it until I was in the dark garage and it became quite obvious.

[My 2006 Camry driver's seat makes a terrible groaning sound while adjusting it.]

This noise started when it was out of warranty.  It is my wife's car and I have a Lexus.   I don't drive the Camry until I need to and then I adjust the seat.  Everything works fine mechanically except for the noise  I lubed the spiral gear under the adjustment mechanism with oil.   It had a strange quirk when it somehow made the noises depending on the temperature outside. I don't exactly remember how it started, it was so many years ago.  Since I don't drive the car and my wife keeps the seat at her adjustment, we just live with it.

Any ideas how to silence the noise without taking the seat apart--which I will no attempt.
