"switching" sound from behind console?
Lately I'm getting an electrical switching sound in my 2002 C230 Coupe w/ 60,000 miles. It sounds a lot like the power door loks (but it's not), and it sounds like it's coming from behind the radio. I hear it 5 or 6 times after starting, then it stops. Of course, I'll bring it to my mechanic, but does anyone have a guess?

Im guessing this noise is different from the "knocking" noise or the "clicking" noise described in many posts where people have a busted stepper motor?
