Window Relay Clicking

[Buchholz, Steven]

This sounds suspiciously like a broken wiring harness in the driver's door
hinge.  Does your car have the master window controls mounted on the armrest
of the driver's door?  If so, check to see if you've got any wires with
broken insulation and exposed copper in the loom underneath the boot that
you can see when you open the driver's door.  It sure seems to me that for
1992 models now would be just about the right time for this to start
happening.  AAMOF there have been some similar reports I've seen recently
from '90 & '91 V8s.  

HTH!
