it has to do it while a mechanic looks at it. However try cleaning the body to battery ground and engine to battery ground as it sounds more like a ground issue. it may be picked up by a mechanic's scanner though if it is doing it when you take it there.

if there is a short in vehicle it has to be physically checked to find out where it is. so it will have to have a mechanic try to find it.
