My battery connections where loose and the dash would randomly light up. Tightened them up and haven't had a problem since. Hopefully is just that easy for you.

A bad battery can also cause your dash to go all Christmas tree on you. Maybe pull it and have it checked. If it checks good, put back and see if leaving TIPM (the fuse and relay box) disconnected for a bit has fixed things.

Same happened to me. The battery terminal connector was completely corroded through (due to drag from the winch and lights). I had to replace the battery terminal connectors so I bought the super heavy duty (made in the USA) connectors from Quadratec and then sprayed the connections and posts with the red anti corrosion "paint" and now voila...no more corrosion and no more crazy lights.
