Default clock stuck under dash!

This just started happening. The dome light seems to be freaking out because when I am driving I randomely hear a fast clicking noise under the dash near my knees. I finally had the chance to play with it and find that the light comes on half the time when I open the drivers door. The passenger door recreates that annoying click, click, click noise and sometimes the light will blink. The back doors dont do anything anymore. There are still rubber pads on the doors at the buttons. I checked the fuse boxand of course there is none to pullfor the dome light. Is there anything I can do to just dissable thedome lightor is it an easy fix?

The clicking sounds like a relay, find the relay and pull it?

haha, where can I find the relay? Is it one of the square boxes in the bottom part of the fuse box in the dash?

it would be one of those boxes.....when you open the door and hear it clicking, remove the fuse panel cover and touch the relays individually....you should be able to feel the clicking

Are they cheap to replace? Can I just drop by Autozone or something and pick up a new one?
