What is this electrical box located inside below the glove box? Mine makes a loud clicking sound while underway.

I believe it's a relay that's only on autos when you're under 20mph or something. Not positive tho.

I lookes at a factory wiring diagram, and coupldn't find it. But I know I've seen it, is it anything to do with the seat belt warning light on all post 71 cars? Maybe hooked in with the switches in the seats, and belts and that funky red light in the dash?

Well here is a little more info. It's a 1970 510 wagon w/auto trans. Smog equipted for California. The "Signex Control Switch" box is located under the glove box on the kick panel. It has a group of 6 wires that join a main harness connecting directly into the fuse box in the engine compartment.

Move Indicator relay (Speed relay) I believe it hooks up to the speedo cable (Speed sensor) in the engine compartment or something. Anyways it controls the "Carb throttle switch" which hooks up to a solenoid. Maybe a kick down ?

I bet it only clicks when you change speeds, right ?
