Why does my car make weird blinker like noises even when my blinkers is not on?

This may sound weird but check your wiper switch. I had the same thing happen in my toyota, the intermittent wipers quit working but the relay would still click like blinkers do, after searching all around I bumped the wiper switch by accident and the noise quit. Living in Nevada I use the wipers about once a year so I never noticed that the intermittent part had quit. If that is not it is is still some relay clicking on and off so track down the noise and find out what it contriols.
