I'm not familiar with any unique aspects to the charging system that your model may have but broadly speaking I'd say you have a loose belt, faulty connection, or a faulty alternator.

If the lights stays on at all times, even with the engine off, it's a sure sign of faulty alternator diodes.

Cheers
