An easy one, the starting capability of my van isn't the way it should be, when ignition occurs the instrument panel lights dim, the van turns over JUST and I have 2 car battery's parallel connected. I've changed the fuses overhauled the starter checked/cleaned eaths and I still don't know what causes the dip in power.
Do you have any suggestions to what causes this please?

Please refer back to your last thread which ran to 8 pages. And you didn't read or understand any of it.
Parallel batteries.
Bad ground.

Amateurs assume, don't test and have problems; pros test first. I am not a free install service.
Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.
