My 2001 Nissan Pathfinder wouldn't start the other day. I jumped it and it started and then drove it for a bit to try to charge the battery but came back home, shut it off then dead again when I tried to start.
Took battery to get checked. It was at 68% so they charged it. Put it back in truck. Still nothing initially. Wipers were on and were moving real slow then all of a sudden started moving at full speed. Then I turned the key and it started no problem. Let it run for a few mins, turned it off then dead again. If I turn the key to acc position I can here the relays in the fuseboard and fuse box in engine compartment clicking like crazy especially when I try to turn on the lights or wipers. Wiper motor clicks too.
Any ideas??

Have your battery charged and tested. Verify the connections to be shiny clean and tight. If your voltage is too low, the relays will click like crazy as they try to engage but the voltage drops too low for them to hold the engagement.
You did state you got it charged. A battery at 68% charge will do nothing for you, and you need to have it put on a load tester to see if the battery itself is junk.
