Is the battery going dead? If it is how long does it take to go dead? Your alternator might be shot and by driving it, especially at night, you could be running the battery dead. Or you might have a short somewhere.

Good Evening jwbuilder, this kind of problem is often caused by the body groung circuit.

Check the battery negative lead for properness to the engine and then check the connection from the engine to the body.

It sounds like the engine to body lead is high resistance, possible bad lug or connection in that area.

That kind of thing can allow the engine to crank properly but the rest of the electrical circuit not to have proper grounding and thus not perform properly.

It is commonly apparent with dull headlights or lights that appear to flicker when different accessories are used.

Cheers, qldit.
