Buzzing Sound from command control

Hi Guys,
I just discovered a low buzzing noise coming from back of command control, with or without key in ignition.
Sound goes away once I take the key out from ignition, but not until a couple of minutes later.
I think sound is still there when the engine is on, but I just can't hear it clearly to verify.
It sounds like a tiny motor running or some sort of air circulation.
Does anyone have a clue?
Thanks

It is the cooling fan or perhaps your CD driver for your GPS.

Re: Buzzing Sound from command control

Is there a cooling fan right behind command control?
I had turned off the radio, but the noise was still there.
Is this something that I should be concerned or should I just ignore it for now?
I didn't think it's going to run out the battery since it stops after a couple of minutes.

It is normal to hear it for a couple minutes.
