What is this light on my stereo head? 2006 E53 OEM display.

Couldn’t find the right list of indicators to let me know what this is. Just came on the other day. It looks like a fan (4 blades) and is red although pic makes it look yellowish. It’s on the stereo near the right side stereo navigation button on an OEM 2006 E53 X5 4.8is.
Thanks in advance. And yes dash is filthy! Needs a good detail when warms up outside.

Activated independent heating or venting.

Thank you.

Odd - I recently got PA Soft and it seems that every time I run it that turns on. I have never used the independent heating or ventilation feature. At least I know how what it is to turn it off now.

Can confirm, it happens each time you connect PA Soft. Don't know why...

Thanks. If I figure out how to fix it I’ll post it up.

Same, before I converted to Android, it always activated the timer 1 to 12:00 after connecting with PA Soft.

Thanks for the confirm. What did you convert to Android? The screen/stereo?

I went with the AVIN Avant-4 Android head unit as a replacement to the factory audio system. It really brings our outdated systems to the current level of driver aids. Back up cameras, Bluetooth streaming capability, DVR of both front and rear cams, ADAS collision avoidance, wireless CarPlay, Android Auto, etc.
