clicking in engine compartment when ACC is on?

I am hearing a high pace clicking sound in the engine compartment when just the accesories are on. It only happens about every five minutes, and only lasts for about five seconds. Also, I think the sound is either the battery, or very near it. I've searched for other threads, but see nothing. Is this normal?

Accessories? Do you mean AC? If you do, then I have a similar problem.

If I drive my car for about 20-30 minutes with the AC on, my car starts rattling, and it sounds like it's coming from near the driver's side wheel well/undertray (not from inside engine bay). I haven't really looked into it but it only occurs after I'm driving for awhile and the AC has been on. It doesn't occur when the AC is off, and I have no freakin' clue what the hell it is...

I have ~9000 miles..

No, not the AC, just the accesories...i.e. turning the key on but not starting the ignition. I don't use the AC much where I'm at, so I don't know about your rattling.

It's probably just a relay clicking. I wouldn't worry about it. Same stuff happens in driver's footwell when you hit the IC spray "manual" button
