I recently noticed a clicking sound (sounds like a relay) coming from
the back (somewhere behind the front seats) of the car. The noise
usually occurs when going over bumps in the road. If searched
HMASERVICE.COM but cannot find any relays in the back. I removed the
rear hatch panel with the car running and tried knocking on things but
no luck reproducing the sound.

Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

You'll probably need to ride around in the back with someone else driving.
The fact that it occurs over bumps points toward something loose or some
sort of other mechanical issue; it's not very likely to be electrical.

Thanks for the feedback. I did just that but the sound seemed to be
comming from different places. I removed the interior hatch cover and
discovered a small piece of metal of weld flash in the hatch door
interior. Removed that and the sound is now gone. Drove me crazy
because it sounded just like a relay but couldn't find any relays
beyond the frnt seats in the diagrams.

Thanks again!
