The battery can be fully charged but still have diminished cranking amps. It's probably a bad battery or starter

I would try another battery. See if you can pull one form someone else's car just to test it. Sounds like you have a dead cell and it's no longer powerful enough to run whatever relay is clicking around your fuse box. Might be a bad relay but probably not.
