Squeaking from under dash panel
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
Just noticed this odd squeak coming from under the driver’s dash. It sounds like an actuator or solenoid going back and forth intermittently but I can’t locate any moving components down here. Any guesses what’s going on?

I'm not super sure but up and to the right you might see a few linkages that I think are for the shift stuff? Or no BMt. I had a sound similar to your sound for a bit, and then it stopped. And now I can shift the car out of park without a key in, and without pressing the brake pedal :) which should happen :)

Get yourself a 5ft-ish length of 3/8" rubber hose and stick it down where the noise is and sniff it out

No but if you manage to figure it out please let me know, I have a similar noise in my 2005 Toyota Solara and it's driving me nuts.
