The head lamps should not get dim. Dim light are an indication of low voltage. You should have a volt meter in the instrument panel. If the voltages is not reading about 14V when the engine is running, you have a bad battery or alternator. It should read over 12V with the engine not running and the ignition in the on position. It should not drop below about 9-10 when cranking the engine. If you have low voltage during cranking and normal voltage at other times, you probably need to replace the battery.

Most likely the dimmer switch. I have had this problem before and I went to a pull a part junkyard and bought a few of them. I highly recommend doing this, as I have already blown 2/3. It's a common problem with our trucks.
