When the fan for the radiator turns on the all the lights dim for a few seconds when shuts off it goes back up I took it to Ford dealer and they said it was the alternater and they replaced it with a used alternater wich the car is still under warrent when I got the car at normal temp and the fan kicks on it stills does it even after they replace the alternater so I called them back and now they are saying it is normal for the light to dim but all the other cars I have driven have done this.
