For the lights and gauges, clean both battery cable ends. Corrosion there will cause that problem. Remove the plasticy rubber from the ends and clean inside using baking soda and water until it stops foaming up. You can reinstall them if you want, but I leave them off on my vehicles, all they seem to do is keep moisture in there. Don't sit any wrenches on the edge of the battery and you won't need them
So you're saying if I clean all my battery cable ends it might help the problem. Its weird when i test my battery it gives a little more the 12v because its new and when I test the wiring harness it is giving around 10v - 11v never 12v.

So somewhere in between there is a problem and I just dont know where to look! If anyone knows pleas help a bother out!
