hey guys, car is a 99 civic. everytime i put the defroster on there is a click noise that comes from the driverside under dash. and the defroster automatically goes off after a while!!!! all inputs welcome

 

If it is only one click, that would be your relay. And yes it is normal for it to shut off on its own.

so does that mean the relay is no good? because ive been having electrical problems and im trying to find the source. is it supposed to click? and which relay are you talking about? thanks ina dvance

 

Yes it is supposed to click. Is your defroster not working?

 

front or rear defrosters? rear defrosters are set on a 10 minute timer so they are supposed to cut off, and yeah, the only other thing that may click is the control side of the relay for that circuit.
