clicking sound under dash. solenoid or breakers?
41chevy replied to macattack's topic in Electrical, Electronics and Lighting
The automotive circuit breakers are automatic, they have a bi metal strip that causes them to open under the heat generated under a high draw and reset when they cool down. A short or overload will sometimes cause an endless cycle. They do wear down with age. Most all are available by amperage rating in an auto parts store . More than likely the solenoid is just doing it's thing. Paul -

The Dodge ran the big six until 55 or 56 when a Dodge Polysphere a Brownie box were swapped in and "speed holes" were added to the hood. A fairly typical mod in the early 50's to upgrade to a "modern" V-8. We had a few early 50's GMC tater trucks up graded from the 261 six to a 283 V-8. It was cheaper than a newer truck

That one had a 241 Polysphere Hemi in it with a 4 speed and a brownie box. Bet the driver worked real hard to drive that unit.
