Something clicking in my dash
I've got a 96 TA M6, non ws6, and there's something clicking on the dash.
Sounds like a contractor, kinda like for the locks. But is not the locks. It's somewhere in the passenger side, and i can't figure what it is.
I haven't dug into it, just trying to figure it out by sound.
It happens all the time, car running or not, ignition on or off. now that I'm sitting here waiting for it to click to time it, it's not doing it. What the fudge?
It was doing it while i was cleaning the car before work, now that I'm in the parking lot, it's not doing it. Whatever.
Any ideas?

I'd bet it has something to do with the heater. One of the vehicles we use at the agency I work for (Chevy Impala) was doing the same thing. We took it in and it was related to the heater. Also, the car would only blow hot air when the car was moving. When the car was at idle, it would only blow cold air, even when the heater was on max heat.

Hmmm, maybe. My heater works, ac doesn't. Not sure why the ac is out, haven't messed with it yet.
Maybe that's why it stopped, the other day i had to use the heater the first time to defrost the windshield.
My dash is fucked. Cracked all over, falling apart. I don't want to start tearing into it until i have either a decent replacement, or a good idea/foundation to custom make one.
Anyone got any leads on custom dashes? Just for ideas. Only requirements are that the ac and heat still work. Gauges too obviously, haha.

Ebay had some for $299, but they were for the 1997 and up f-bodies.
