Z4 M Humming Noise after turning off engine (video)

Can anyone tell me what's causing this humming sound? It comes on after I turn off my car, and it stops after a few minutes or if I open the door.

Can't say I hear anything on your video but it could be a few things, cooling fan for the ECU, maybe the AC fan.

I figured it out! My idle control valve just needed some cleaning. I used carburetor cleaner, and it worked like a charm.
