Help! relay/timer on side of fuse panel??

[sean2000gt]

was out beating on the car last night (rb20 vert) and afterwards i noticed my headlights seemed to be dimming for a millisecond like every 10 seconds...once i came to a stop i could hear a clicking about every 8 seconds. watching the afc, whatever is causing the clicking has the power to completely remove battery power..i found what was clicking is some cylinder shaped timer/relay on the side of the interior fuse panel on the right side. having trouble figuring out what it is...trying to figure out if i can run to the junkyard and get a replacement or remove it and wire something in...just dunno what the hell it is. lol. seems like it might be a timer for after you turn off the key..like when you cut off the key after about 5 seconds it clicks and cuts power to everything...except mine will cut power for a millisecond when the car is running. anyone that can point me to a source will be my hero. thanks.

Are the battery and alternator good? When the voltage gets low the car will do some strange things and you'll hear relays clicking because there isn't enough power to keep them latched.

Take a multimeter and with the car running check your voltage across the battery.
