    Hey, you say you had it fixed a few times - didn't they say what the problem was? If it was an auto electrician you should take it back and get them to fix it properly for free if they made you pay last time. I am not an electrician, but it has to be either an electrical fault/connection/wiring issue or maybe the LCD screen in the dash is faulty. If you can find out what they 'fixed' when it was repaired, it would probably make it easier to determine what the proper solution is.
