Beep Beep Sound - Please help Identify

Update: Problem fixed. It was the dash cam. Thanks all for the replies!


I've got a new sound in my 2019 X5 40i that won't go away. Its a beep beep sound coming from the area of the center screen. This short video captures the sound



All systems are good according to car status. There are no error messages or warning messages.

This beep beep sound is on at all times; engine on, engine off, unlocked, locked.

Does anybody know what is causing this sound?

Oh man, that would drive me nuts. I saw someone on another forum had a similar issue, and they said it was fixed by cycling the AC through all of its modes. If you have the video already, I would just try cycling through AC and what not. Dumb question, but did you do the long reset on the vehicle? This is black magic that works from time to time! Interested to see what it ends up being. Good luck!

No aftermarket alarm. I do have a dash cam. I'll unplug it and see.

That's exactly what it sounds like (besides KRS-one). Maybe it is the dash cam. Can't think of anything standard on the car that would sound like that.

It was my dash cam. I had it installed when I bought the car and I forgot it was there. I unplugged it and the beep is gone.

Thanks for giving me the idea to think down this path.
