Electrical gremlins....HELLLLP PLEASE

Drove the car today...first time since swapping out the lights which I don't THINK is in anyway connected to what happened today..
A few min into the ride the check engine light lit up...no symptoms other than that... then a few min later the "mulit display" guage in the center of the LS guage pod started swinging back on forth and acting STUPID... finally it landed to rest showing 5.77 G's and locked up...
ANY IDEA what the heck is going on.. Do I have to take it back to ford to pull any codes?
ANY HELP would be appreciated!
Thanks

Could be a short. You swapped the headlights or interior?

Not trying to be rude, but how hard would it be to return to stock configuration and doing a power reset to see if problem goes away?
