Hi guys, I've been stuck with this problem for months and only just found out that apparently it's called relay chatter! I googled that and found you guys, looks like a great forum! I'll give you a quick background
I'm 21, been restoring a 1984 Saab 900 Turbo in Australia. I have cruise control in this car, all the sensors and that works because when I engage cruise control the car maintains it's speed however I get a high pitch buzzing from under the dash!
Upon further investigation I found that there is a relay before the Cruise Control ECU that was vibrating and appeared to be the cause of the sound.
I've been told that this is called relay chatter, but I obviously don't know how to fix it, I do have a wiring diagram but am hopeless at reading it, Can scan it and upload if you guys need it, but thought it might be a simple fix. I did try replacing it with a relay of the same rating but no fix!
I was told that installing a diode could fix this, but any greater more thorough advice would be fantastic.
Thanks in advance for and help!
