Good day,

Lately I have been hearing a buzzing noise coming from my fuse box, and now the car has stalled on me twice in two days while driving.

Hi,

Which fuse box do you hear it from? If you place your finger on the different relays and fuses, can you tell which one is buzzing?

Let me know.

The fuse box in the engine compartment. I am not seeing any visible relays within the fuse box.

Hi,

Take a look at the pics below. That is what is shown in my manual. Does yours look different?

Let me know.

Hi,

That's odd. When you hear the noise, can you (by touch) tell if it is specific to one area? If you remove one fuse at a time, is there a specific fuse that causes it to stop?

Let me know.
