Sylvia: Could be so many things, you could have a short in one of the wiring set ups. You could have a sensor going bad. You need to get someone to take a voltmeter, starting with the battery work their way through the car; till they find out what is causing this. You could have one of those bad computers. You have an AutoZone close by? For free they will code your car, that might explain your problem. That code would check the computer and all the sensors in your car. Oh you should buy yourself a repair manual for your car. You could get one at any parts store.Costs around $20.00. It will help you understand what your car is trying to tell you. Or else you could check your library, they have them; you should read through it also. But I really think there is either a short or something to do with computer or sensors.If you knew more about your car; you could take it to a shop and tell them what to check. Your shop sounds like they are taking your money but not fixing anything. I so hate that! Hope this helps and good luck!
