Default Clicking noise from dash when...
Only when I have my windshield wipers on the slowest setting, right before they go in motion, a subtle clicking noise comes from the dash. I have a my2000 and assume this is nothing too worry about, I'm just curious. My Dad said it sounds like a relay switch clicking on . What is this?

It's the thing that tells your wipers when to intermittently go on. Usually this switch is in the engine bay but on this car, it's behind the dash. That's why you hear it so well on this car and not on other cars.

vtec9... everytime I see one of your post that video of the girl distracts me from work even more. As if reading the boards wasn't distracting enough .

Nice disclaimer. It's usually good to be distracted from work though... especially when it has to do with hot girls or S2000's .
