HEADLIGHTS DIM WHEN PUSH WINDOW BUTTONS

It is not a complete dimming of headlights, but still very noticeable. Only when pushing the window up or down buttons. Any thoughts on the cause and the fix?

Tech, Thanks! Another question, wouldn't that also mean battery charge is being drawn down now? Just curious because I've got a strong charge and no problem with cold starts. Knock on wood.
