Sounds like an alternator problem. I know with those Honda guys, they actually have to use capacitors because every time the bass hits the lights dim. Lol.

I would look into testing your alternator first.

Sounds like alternator issue, assuming that your serpentine belt is fairly new. If it is not, there could be some slippage happening there. Epsecially if it's been taken off a few times.
