I would take it in to a shop and have them plug the scanner into it. It may have thrown some dtc's (diagnostic trouble codes) during the accident. if thats all it is they can clear the codes and the corresponding lights should go off.

most likely it is a connection problem. check all the connections and fuses. Especially the ground connection from the engine to the chassie
