Mechanical motor noise towards rear (underside) when off

I can't seem to figure this one out. There is a mechanical motor noise towards the back of my highlander after its been turned off. I noticed it when I can back in to get something when it was in the garage. Its like a small pump sounding noise (like the sound of a fish tank pump or something).

Am I crazy? anyone have any idea what it might be?

Take a look in the Common Problems & Solutions sticky at the top of this forum page. There's a link in there called Humming/Motor Sound Coming From Underneath Your Highlander, which has all the details.
