You need to have the trouble codes read to know why the lights are on. Try your local auto parts store, Write the codes down and post them here.

I have had this happen when the unit is on cruise and overspeeds going down a hill. Disconnect the battery and let sit till the condensers discharge. Works faster if you know how to safely get this to happen. NO CODES will appear. Have had it happen enough times that a 10mm spinner wrench is in the glove box to disconnect the negative battery terminal.
