While the truck is running ( dark outside )
Headlights on in park @ idle rpm .....when I move the steering wheel I notice my dome light dim a bit ...about 20% give or take . I'm not seeing my headlights or dash lights dim at all , just the dome ?

I have no lighting mods and no non OEM Electronic mods , just the back up cam & RA4 conversion .

Does anyone else notice your dome light dim ?

Mine does that on my 2016, I think it's the greater demand from the electric power steering

Old thread but I completely forgot to post about this, mine does that as well. I got a new battery about a month ago and it still does this. I would imagine its normal for the EPS system?
