I've had this problem for quite some time now. I thought I had it figured out when I realized my wiring harness for the left side of the cluster was backwards, but its not the entire case.
Every time I push the power window switches, it does not matter which one, the battery gauge goes up and down, indicating to mean a drain.
Took it to Oreilly's and the guy said the alternator and regulator are working fine, but that something is draining the battery, and THAT is why my HEADLIGHTS and all other lights dim when I hit the power window switches.
NOW, I have to know WHY this is happening. Has anyone had this happen to them? I replaced the driver's main PW switch thinking that was it, but its not. It's happening to all 4 switches. Any ideas where I can look for the problem?
