Check your battery, It sounds like the start is not getting enough power.

Could be battery, connection, cables or the starter going bad.

Edit: When does it click? I assumed when you are trying to start the car?

It sounds like the relay is in the Retained Accessory Power (RAP) module, which is about the location you mentioned. I'm not sure how pulling the fuse could stop it unless the radio is shorting it out. Check the value of the radio fuse. it should be 15 amps. The RAP module is what switches off the radio when the door opens. That module could be defective or the fusible link that suplies power could be intermittent. Do you have any trouble with the wipers when this is happening? The wipers are on the same fusible link circuit.
