Default Courtesy Lamps/Ceiling Lights relay

So this morning I've started driving my '07 A8 which is out of warranty and music was pausing every 30 seconds either on satellite, cd or radio and I was hearing a relay like noise (click, click, clik). So I got home, I've locked myself in the car and I saw that the courtesy lamps/ceiling red & blue (or white, whatever) lights don't go off + I could hear the relay clicking every 30 seconds. Once the lights turned off and the clicking stopped, but after that one time, they refused to turn off again. The clicking comes from behind the rear seats, maybe from the trunk? If anyone can tell me where this stupid relay is so I can replace it, I would really appreciate. Thx.

Unhappy

So my car is at the dealer now and...surprise, the telephone transceiver went bad, that's why i have all these problems, who would believe that at 57k miles you would start having this kind of problems. The cost to replace it and reprogram the stupid transceiver is around $1300.00, imagine my face when I've heared that...
