What is your question, exactly? Does the car behave differently when the lights illuminate? What have you done so far to troubleshoot the problem you're having?

thanks guys turns out it was the alternator my old one failed all the test when I had it tested. The car wasnt behaving in anyway it was driving the same it was just the battery icon and doors icon in the dash were flashing on and off alot. Once I put the new alternator in no lights in the dash were flashing.
