Narrative:
On landing roll; as thrust reversers deployed; all (both engines; APU and wheel well) fire lights illuminated and fire bell sounded. Both engine overheat lights illuminated. Thrust reversers were stowed and we cleared the runway. Tower was notified and fire crews responded. Tower notified us that no signs of fire to be seen. After arriving on scene; notified us no signs of fire. #2 engine was shut down and fire trucks followed us to the gate. Passenger deplaned normally and maintenance and dispatch were notified. All fire indications remained illuminated and each time power source changed; fire bell sounded. Postflt inspection by maintenance and pilots revealed no sign of fire.
