Default Relay Chatter

Hey folks,

Car is an '02 Acura 1.7 EL (Civic).

Couple of times this week, when I put the key in and went to start, I heard all this chattering from a relay under the passenger side of the dash (might also have heard some from under the driver side as well). The DRL (Daytime Running Lights) light was flickering intermittently as well. Fan and radio were fine. Car started fine.

The first time it happened, I turned the lights on/off and it went away. Car ran fine for a couple of days till this AM when it happened again. This time, the lights on/off thing didn't cure it but it settled down a few moments after I started the car and the DRL came on.

Any thoughts as to what this chatter could be?

Cheers!
