What could be causing this warning sound in my BMW?

The rear door is fully closed on my 2007 BMW 520i, but the warning still sounds. How do I stop it?

Hi Hugh,

Odds are that this is being caused by the switch that operates the warning. Open the door and take a look for a spring-loaded switch and inspect it for damage. After that it's worth checking the wiring to it. Then it's probably best to consult a mechanic or auto-electrician.
