I have a 2000 Land Cruiser with about 180K miles.

Today when I wanted to get out of the LC the moment I turned the ignition off it started doing this irritating continuous sound. Kind of like when the headlight is left on I guess. But the headlights are not on, they are on auto but even when turned to off position the sound keeps going. I also checked all the doors but nothing seems to stop the noise. In the end I just disconnected the battery but that really isn't a lasting solution.
Oh and no warning lights are on.

What might be part of it is that it has been raining here for the past few days, I live in Southern California so that is a rarity. the forst day my rouf was leaking and got the car pretty damp. I now have a tarp over it but not everything has dried yet. maybe this has generated a short somewhere?

anyways I hope someone here has any idea of what it might be, would love to fix this without spending a fortune at the dealers.
