1990 CQ  # 4 fuse blown  (radio, dome light, hatch light, makeup lights and=
 AC control, trip computer and clock)  Car runs fine. Temp control resets t=
o 74 when car is started.  AC is nonfunctional (no belt, needs charge) Pull=
ed the radio and instrument cluster. I tested with a DMM and there's still =
a short some where.  Now for the strange part.  With the ignition off I can=
 here a faint clicking coming from the area around the back of the fuse pan=
el.  Like a relay operating but much quieter.  It is very rapid but when yo=
u open the drivers door it slows down and if you open the passenger door it=
 quits.  Is this related or just some thing that I never noticed until now?=
 I also need some pointers on where/how to look for this short.  Both door =
switches work(tested by function of window roll up not with DMM)  Hatch swi=
tch good.  Should I get a "Lights on" ding when the passenger door is opene=
d and the headlights are left on?  Opinions needed.  Any BTDT?

Thanks,
Carlo
