Test the battery and alternator, the computer needs a minimum of 9v to work! And at that voltage, it's just barley working! Autozone will test the battery and alternator for free, just drive over there!

just purchased the battery a month ago we noticed that when the keys were completely out of the car the lights would still blink had to diconnect the battery to stop it.
Answer to PM: Which lights? You need to check the charging system, and return to the shop that performed the sway bay work, tell them your concern!
