Ford Escort - Anti-theft light issue - Alfred Rees-Glinos

The anti-theft light (located below the dash clock) used to flash continuously every few seconds once the car was locked. It doesn't come on at all now. Does this mean that the anti-theft system doesn't work? Any way to get the light to come back on once the car is locked? Many thanks.

The small LED has probably stopped working they do have a long life but they do wear out eventually. Its been over 20 years since the escort has been out of production for 20+ years now.
