how to reset sytem after jump start?

Hi guys.

I have just jump started my car after a flat battery and after about 10 minutes driving the warning lights come on the dash (t/c air bags etc).
I have been to you take the terminals off the battery and join them together for a while. My problem is i have an lpg tank over the battery and i wonder if there is another way to do it?

cheers.

Turn the steering wheel all the way to the left and then all the way to the right. that sould reset if not all most of the lights. then go for a ride.

I have done the above as what has been rocommended to me.

My problem is that after around 10 or 15 minutes of driving i get the warning lights back on. i trun off the ignition and they dont come back on.

Any ideas on how to get them to stay off please.

Thanks.
