I have Mercedes Benz C180. My dashboard lights go on and off, especially when I accelerate on a high speed and sometimes when I press the car horn. I have taken it to several garages, but it could not be fixed.
Please help out.

Start with your local auto stores - AutoZone, Advance, Car Quest, Pep Boys, NAPA, Discount, and Google Auto Part stores foreign with your zip code; start taking to each one to see if they will run their diagnostic machine on your car.
This is a free service and some stores have more elaborate machines than others. Keep going until someone finds the problem.
This is probably a short in your electrical system and one of the most complicated things to find and repair.
Just try these auto parts stores first before taking your car to a foreign service shop so you will know a little about the problem before they tell you their diagnosis.
This is a safety hazard as it might cause more damage like a shortage and burn up the wiring system.
I don't think a normal garage will be able to fix this for you. There is a short in a circuit board that needs to be replaced. I am assuming this is a newer model Mercedes and most of the parts on the car is electronics.
You should take your car to a garage that specializes in European car repair or Mercedes Benz. These shops have special computers and diagnostic machine that they hook up to your car to pin point the issue.
