Thank you Jon for coming in to post that the ground subject has been posted before. My question is about why my lights are dimming. So here we go again a subject on a forum that has been discussed before. But hey at least you can get your posts up.

Had the electrical system checked and it was good. So good battery and alternator.

This might also help explain why lights are dimming.
Bad ground wearing out axles.

Have not fixed it yet, school started back and been lazy is my only excuse. Going to build a ground this weekend when I drill with the Air Force.

I'm curious to hear of your results. My 97 does the exact same thing. I'm wondering if this issue mite be affecting my highway miles per gallon.

And Thank You for serving our country
