Supahoopsa Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 My CL has also packed up recently and is also blowing fuses. However there is a constant ticking noise coming from somewhere near the drivers footwell - sounds like a relay triping. This clicking also coincides with the red led alarm light next to the clock flashing so I assume that this is related?? Any ideas as to how or where I start with trying to fix this?

mintalkin Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 check as previous post for your c/locking,the relay i think is a different issue and might just be noisy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supahoopsa Posted September 12, 2008 Share Posted September 12, 2008 check as previous post for your c/locking,the relay i think is a different issue and might just be noisy thanks, but I have visually checked the wires and they look OK. The relay clicking, the LED blinkinging and the Central locking blowing a fuse all happened at the same time so I am convinced that this is the route cause of my problem. I stuck my head under the footwell last night and there are wires everywhere, just above the pedals. There is a definite ticking noise coming from there! Any ideas?
