Question type: Maintenance & Repair

Truck has been sluggish. I think there is a battery issue. Then the other panel lights come on as well. Is this normal for the other lights to come on, if there is a battery issue?

Low/ bad voltage can wreak a little havoc that's for sure but the batteries main job is to start the vehicle, once running the alternator takes over and runs everything so if there's a voltage issue id be suspect of the alternator which you can have tested for free at many auto parts stores.
