so i managed to get my car started, managed to pass smog, just when i think everything's all fine and dandy some other problem pops it's stupid head up.
this time when i start the car and start driving just a little bit something from near the underdash fuse box makes a loud and rapid clicking. sometime's it'll stop for a few seconds then start up again. sometimes it doesnt click at all.
the next problem is the ignition fuse in the underhood fusebox was blown so i took the 50a fuse from the option slot and put it in the ignition slot. that started it right up but at that point i had no power windows or sunroof, but the power side mirrors worked. so i bought a new 50a fuse to replace the one i canabalized for the sake of getting the car started.
here's the weird thing, if i have both fuses for the ignition and option in, the windows will work but i cant start the car and there's another slow clicking coming from the same general area as that other fast paced clicking. but if i take out the option fuse and leave the iginition fuse in i can start the car but the windows wont work. wtf??
all these symptoms leads me to believe there's a bad relay for the power windows. i was searching on http://www.slhondaparts.com/ for the relay's, but they list four different relay assembly's for the power options, so which one do i need? if that's what i need.
i swear to god if this car gives me any more problems im gonna shoot it

really need help with this. gonna be going on a road trip this weekend and it would be nice to have working windows.
i was trying to find the source of the clicking the other day and it was coming from the underdash fuse panel. couldnt tell exactly where.
