If your lights dim slightly when the window is all the way up or down and you hold the switch a little longer, it is normal for it to do that.

Mine would do that even when I had a new alternator and larger battery. It takes a large amp load to engage the window motors.

yup its normal, the window motors take a lot of juice to get going, especially to close the windows
