Now you at least have an idea were to look. Be very suspicous of any wiring that is not origional to the car. Many time I have seen things that were added improperly causing all kinds of weird problems. The only way to start was to tear it all out by the roots and if I had any documentation try to reinstall correctly. Burglar alarms in particular can give you fits especially if they are tied into the ignition or starting systems. They can interconnect many systems like lights, horn, ignition, starting etc. When they malfunction you wouldn't believe the trouble they can cause!

Along with all the other rattles and squeaks that comes along with a 20 year old car that's driven every day around rural NC (where the potholes can swallow a Winnebego) I have suddenly noticed this steady click coming from the instrument cluster. It happens about every 5-10 seconds and sounds just like the click that the turn signal gives. Anyone think this is important, or is my paranoia getting to me again? > > Scott > > > [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] To address comments privately to the moderating team, please address: moderator@xxxx To search the archives or view files, log in at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dmcnews Your use of Yahoo!
