Default Tick sound in the dash

Question for about a month I have had a tick sound in my dash, it drives me nuts!!! It is worse when I first start and run the can in the am. If I shut the car off it goes away and then starts coming back. It is progressively getting worse has anyone had any experience with this?

seems like we have seen this before and it was a relay. might try unplugging relays one at a time and see if it stops.

If you're a senior citizen, you probably left your turn signal on!

If it was a relay would it stop when I shut the can off and then start it again? It does come back but takes a few minutes. Midas said that it may be a vacuum line in the dash. I will admit I am far from a mechanic so I am open to places to look. Two things that were done at the time it started, first was had all a/c components changed and had a Sirius xm radio installed.
