T&T: "click" sound and a move of gages

[Faure, Marin]

>This weekend I noticed for the first time a tick or click noise when my
engines were at idle. The noise came from the instrument panel at the
lower helm station.

You've probably already thought of this, and if the noise is new then
this is probably not a valid suggestion.  But some kinds of engine hour
meters click when they advance.  Normally we can't hear ours over the
engines but if the engines are off but the master power switch for the
engine is on the hour meter click is quite audible.
