Something running with engine off
Wondering what might be running with engine off? Upon opening the door on my 2007 I can hear something continuously running in the dash area. I thought it might be the fan but thought it was off. Is this normal? Thanks for your thoughts. Haven’t had this car too long so still sorting it out.

I know when I turn my C6 off there is some clicking sound behind the dash. I figured it was some servo or something setting itself into the off position. However, it is only a couple of seconds and not continuous.

Option fan
That’s what is sounds like. Do you know what that option is called? If that’s what it is it’s a good thing, cause here in Washington state the Pacific Northwest where it’s one of the wettest places in the US. I’m 35 miles from the rain forest. Thanks for your input,

Thanks Don. The item runs all the time. I notice it after first opening the door when all is quiet. I still have a C5. This car is a whole new electrical experience!
