Default Electrical Problem

Hey everyone! HAPPY NEW YEAR.
I have a urgent issue with my 2000 mazda protege. When I try to turn the engine over, the the dash board lights go haywire, blinking on and off with a weird malfunctioning sound.
I'm at a loss on what is problem could be.
Bad electrical grounds? Wire chassis?
Bad Computer? It just started doing this last night. I just got it out of the shop last week.
They replaced my timing belt, valve cover gasket and intake manifold gasket.
Any ideas? SOS!!
