Default T/A Problems

Hey guys,
My friends T/A has been having some issues. At first, all of the lights on his dash were lighting up and then a few days later his lights wouldnt open either. Now, on top of all of those problems, it has started vibrating fairly hard at an idol. Anybodies input would be much appriciated. Thanks

If the dash lights are coming on whenever and your headlights aren't popping up you have short. Probably a bad ground wire. As far as the vibrating at idol it concerned I dunno. Could be a lot of different things.

Havent seen any codes. Also one more thing I forgot to mention was that after the car has been turned off I can hear a light click in the engine. This click will continue a few hours after it has been shut off (sorry if my descriptions suck...Im still a car newb). Thanks for the help.
