even after turning the light switch to off and shutting off the van and removing the key, my
lights both the headlights and tailights continue to stay on and drain my battery. no matter
what i do they stay on. sometimes they will shut off by themselves and then a short time
later they will turn back on by themselves.

This may be caused by one of three things. Your headlight relays may be bad, your ON-OFF switch may be bad, or your BCM may be bad. I would first start by swapping out the relays. If no luck there, I would then have the vehicle scanned with a DRB III scan tool. That should tell you if you have a bad switch or BCM.
