1998 Grand Caravan wouldn't start

1998 Grand caravan would start, tryed a jump from AAA and it still would not start. The battery had leaked acid around the pos cable and both positive and negative cables terminals have corrosion on them. After installing a new battery all of the panel lights flash and the AC wont shut off? Is this a fuse or a more seroius problem?

Yes it is normal, you have to perform a cooldown and calibration test. if you A/C was not working before the battery was replaced it may still be blinking.
