Clicking Noise Behind Dash?
Hello, I was wondering if anyone knew what this clicking noise was, I recently bought this car and have been fixing it up but I can't seem to find out what's causing this noise.
Here's a video of what i'm talking about http://s147.photobucket.com/albums/r...8-21-00-01.mp4 |
I'm actually getting a weird squeaking noise myself, but only on bumpier roads. So I'm curious myself as to what's causing this.
|
Nobody knows the cause of this?!?
|
I cant hear your noise atm as I dont have speakers, but.. You need to get under there and poke around. Most likely you have an intermittent fault in a relay.
Knowing your cars year and model would be helpful. |
Oh sorry, it's a 2000 Audi A6.
|
Trying to remember, but I do believe there are relays under the dash right at your knees if you remove a panel, and on the left side of the foot well...
|
It sounds like a relay going mental! does it vary in frequency or duration? if it does it could be a bare wire thats rubbing up against the body in that relays control circuit
|
It's always the same noise, but sometimes while I'm driving it'll go for about 15 seconds or so. I've never messed with relays before, besides the hazard switch, how could I check to see which one has gone bad? Also I don't have a volt reader. Would it mess anything up to just unplug a relay at a time and turn the key to see if I get that noise or not?:confused:

tape deck????
|
Nah it isn't the tape deck, but it can be heard under the steer wheel, the radio, and by the fan belt. It seems like its coming from the plug going into the coil packs but I'm not 100% sure, I took a couple more videos hoping it would help ahah.
