Dave, 

We'nt you and I chasing this problem on my car?  It's gone away on my 
car, The thing that I did that "fixed" it on my car was a New Battery.... 
 Seemed that my old batt was down to 15% capacity and with the car 
running and the A/C on it dropped the system voltage down to 12.7v and 
the voltage at the relay panel was somewhere around 10.9v......  You 
might check there.

Later!
