    if it's a buzzing noise it sounds like the oil pressure warning light
    make sure you have oil pressure. check your level. might need a new sender

    of course upload a video......even though low quality sound from a portable phone is terrible
    atleast we could recognize the sound

    seatbelt?

    check your door switch inside the hinge area
    its probally not detecting that the door is closed
    when you open the door does the dome light come on?
    what if you close the door?

    there is also on the igntion switch a configuration which buzzes when you insert the key and open the door
    when you remove the key the open door stops buzzing.

    one of the relays has a noise maker
    also those electronic clusters have noise makers on the circuit board
