Default Pontiac sunfire - clicking then service light comes on???? - 01-16-2007 , 10:36 PM






My car starts fine ... then I put it in reverse (or neutral or drive) and I
hear a clicking noise coming from the fuse box, (if I remove the fuse panel
cover, can also feel the click in a 1" x 1" black relay) my daytime running
lamps flash, and the "service" light comes on. Seems to drive fine (in my
parking lot) but weary of going to far. This all started two days ago.
Looked under the hood. A wire that comes off the started had broke. Had
that fixed and the car worked fine yesterday. But started acting up again
today. The wire is still attached. Suggestions????

The relay that "clicks" is the DRL (Daytime running lamps) relay. Bad
relay? Bad ground? Suggestions??

Problem solved ... Thanks! Apparently it was because there was a headlight
out.
