Loose ground connection or more than likely an alternator that is barely working . Have the alternator checked at any Auto Parts Store or check it yourself. Connect a multimeter set to the 20 volt DC scale to the battery with the engine running at idle. You should read from 13.5 to 15.5 volts. Any less and the alternator is failing and needs replacing. Also make sure the alternator drive belt is not slipping.

What is overdriving your headlights?
the speed you are travelling in a vehicle is faster than your headlights are allowing you to see in front of you. If your headlights were very dim and you could only see a very short distance ahead it would be very easy to overdrive your lights. Or like running as fast as you can, in the pitch dark, in a place you've never been before, with a flash light that is so dim you can barely see 12 inches ahead

Illumination is the ability to lighten the screen or darken the screen with the other dash lights on the vehicle. normally you will have two orange wires coming from the cars wiring harness one with a white stripe one without. The orange/white wire will make the stereo dim or brighten with the dash lights. the solid orange wire will dim/brighten the stereo with the headlights. so if it is night you will have the headlights on, when you turn the headlights on the stereo dims so the light from the stereo will not blind you at night. while the headlights are off the stereo will be bright so the stereo light will be visible in the daytime
