Rapid Relay Click
On turning ignition on position, i get a loud and rapid relay clicking sound, lasts for about 15 seconds then stops. Then if i turn key and start engine, it repeats in a more rapid mode.
Tried with seatbelt fastened and unfastened, all dash lights are operating in their proper fashion, cand find anything at fault and it can be very annoying.

A thread i found informs me this would stop if i turned on the air recirculating button.
BUT! i do not appear to have any power in that as pressing it or holding it appears to do nothing and button does not light up.
