Think I 'Might' Have It 850 1994

I lifted it up and checked the connections. Things seem OK. The only weird thing is a pair of stray wires, which seem to have serviced the car's circa 1994 "car phone" setup. The old cell phone is gone, but I recall finding these wires when I was servicing the car after buying. There are no exposed ends, but I went ahead and pushed them back away from the fuse panel. No frayed wires or broken connectors as far as I can see.

The clicking noise I was getting came from the front-right area. sort of a click - whir. I got several of them while rocking the fuse. Given that the ABS pump is up by the fuses... I'm really not sure what was happening.

Only other relevant thing I can think of, is that I added some R134a to the AC system about the same time as the dead battery. I think I did it after, but it might have been the day before.

Is there any way the AC pump could have been leading to a feedback?
