And the "issues" begin

Hello everyone,

Today I found out that my truck has some quirks with the air/heat system. I can't turn my heat off by turning all the dials off, only by turning the dials off AND pressing the "circulate cabin air" button. Also, half my dash is dimming. I can hardly see the fuel level dial on the right, but the engine temp light on the left is perfectly visible.

I fear this is an electrical problem because my truck also takes a few seconds of holding the key in the start position and turning the engine over before it starts what I call "soft" like it barely got there instead of the traditional "vroom" of staring right up, alternator or battery problem maybe?

Any ideas?

 

Anything?
