I'm thinking you might be wrong there. Sounds to me like your alternator is dying. On my '85 Runner the same lights show up when the alternator isn't putting out enough current.
It's a pretty stupid way of setting up code lights, but it is what they went with in that time period. I'd say get the alternator tested and get ready to either put in new brushes or buy another one.

i thought it may be that, but then why would my blower fan speed up as the RPM's increase (then as soon as the AC compressor disengages, the drops to normal), it's almost as if there is too much voltage or something like that.
