Re: "Click" Heard when FJ starts rolling.

No VIP alarm. I'm the only driver. A/T. It's definitely coming from behind the dash, below and to left of the column (drivers left knee panel). Definitely not a seat track engaging or anything like that. Almost sounds like a Hobbs meter starting.
Just a strange click. I have had so many "ideas", but can't limit any one of them.
Door lock solenoid, data recorder cycling on, speedo electronics. I have no clue!
No lights, just the click when I start and roll for the first time after the start. I do notice a correlation between the speedo registration and the noise. I should try to keep rolling at a snail pace and see. We don't have auto engaging door locks do we? I think the answer is no, but...
