    Clicking sound coming from dash area

    Hey all, its been a while since I've jumped in here with a question I guess thats because my Landy is serving me well!

    I have a 98 Discovery TDi Diesel automatic and recently I've started hearing a clicking sound coming from the dash / fuse area. It happens randomly and sometimes it happens when the air con is on and I turn on indicators which makes me think electrical or something related?

    If anyone could shed some light on this that would be great
    Thanks in advance.

    Blinkers? Sorry, I couldn't help myself, nor have I anything worthwhile to offer.
    It does sound like a circuit breaker, cutting in and out.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    I'm afraid you'll have to hold the torch yourself!

    Seriously, there is a whole bunch of relays down there, if they are clicking when the vehicle is stationary but running, you could open the hatch and put your finger on each one in turn and then work out which one it is.

    Not a Gekko hiding out ?

    How's your battery voltage ? is it running a bit low with the additional load of the aircon but enough to hold the injector pump stop solenoid in ?

    And not to mention any relays added for any accesories too.
    There are also some relays down in the footwell behind the kick panel too.
