Default 2004 545i E60 - Window Light Staying On - Battery Drain

Hello ya'll

Need some help diagnosing a battery drain I am experiencing:

First off, for background, I have the IBS system deactivated. Brand New AGM Battery.

When I shut the car off, even after sleep mode. The green light on the window cluster on the drivers side door stays on. This is the light that indicates whether the windows are locked or not. Although this is just a small light it must be draining the battery some....

Also there is a weird buzzing/humming/electrical noise that seems to come from the climate system/dash/dvd area and I can hear the car intermittently turn on a buzz from time to time.

Anyways, I go to start my car this morning and nothing... no power whatsoever. This is after driving it for over a half hour the day before and a brand new battery...

Anyone have a similar issue(s)??? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

-Josh
