I drive a Nissan sunny 2008,the car keeps making a ticking sound,all the lights on the dashboard keeps going on and off and the car won't start.

Initially this would go on for some minutes and stop the ticking sound and the car will start but it got so bad that it wouldn't even start anymore. Please what is the cause.

Keeps cutting out whilst driving what could be problem

Entire dashboard will light up, steering lock will come on and engine stop. Intermittent fault and hard to diagnose. This causes the car to become uncontrollable as there is no steering and the brakes lose power.
