Should I disconnect the negative terminal on the battery to see if that turns them off?

What state are you out of? Did they put your car on the rollers to smog it? I know that an OBD2 car doesn't need to be on the rollers for an emissions test, but it didn't stop the tester in Georgia when he smogged my car back a year ago and its an 02. I would check to see what the DTCs (diagnostic trouble codes) are and sort from there.

I had to put mine up on rollers here in Cali but once I drove away from the shop for about 1/2 mile, the PSM warning lights went off.
