Default Ticking noise from behind left lamp.

I've got a AUII Fairmont ghia which has amongst other problems started making a loud ticking/knocking noise from a rectangular black box right behind the left head light. What is this box and is it a case of tweaking something or bin it and get a new one.
Don't read the sticky titled "Common Problems with the AU??". I had a great car except for the miss at 4000rpm in first, then I read that forum. Now I have a broken LCD screen ($829.47 NZ), tops of the rear struts are slopped out ($202.27 and $187.71NZ), and a ticking noise which is briefly mentioned but no cure given. All this within 2 weeks of reading that thread, you've been warned.
Ford wont do the work under warranty cause its over 3 years old, but has only travelled 58 000kms, They may pay half the parts cost occasionly in cases like this, but I will wait and see. (No gruge just the facts)
