Default Red blinking door led always on

After replacing all of my door membranes the last door i did was the drivers side now wen i lock the car the red light dosent blink now and is always on all the time.

I am plauged with bad luck on this car as it gets worse....

There i was re-fitting the door card to the drivers door which i had slightly open, I then realised i needed to get a screw driver from the passenger side footwell as i was leaning over to get it....BANG....CRASH.....CRYING!

I look up to find a kid had rode into my door and put a dint in the panel and a nice scratch!

What a day!

Wouldnt be the kid riding into the door thats made the little red light stay on would it?

What a nightmare

Could the LED connectors have been plugged in the wrong way round?

I don't think so; LEDs, like any other diode, only flow electricity one way.

This could be a problem with the central convenience unit or associated wiring loom.

Is the LED on or blinking while the car is being driven? Any other unusual symptoms like not all the doors responding when car is locked or unlocked? Are both door mirrors responding to electric adjustment?
