This is a problem with the ignition swtich assembly becoming worn on an older vehicle and the contact points that power-up the accessory circuits as well as the engine electrics fail to make good electrical contact. The resolution is to replace the ignition switch assembly, which would run about US$300. maybe it could be the alternator? this won't go on for long before requiring replacement.

When should headlights be turn on?

Your headlights should be on whenever it will make a difference on the road. If you can look at the road and be able to tell that your headlights are on/off, then they should be on. Some states, such as New York, require headlights to be on when visibility is limited, such as in rain or fog, even in the day, regardless of whether or not you can see them on the road. In fact, one of the criteria for headlights is whether or not you are using your windshield wipers. At dusk or, in some states where mandated, when it is raining or foggy and you need to turn on your windshield wipers.

How do you adjust the dash light brightness in your 2001 ford zx2?

I have no idea. Did you ever solve this? My dash board lights became very dim whenever I had the headlights on and my battery light kicked on occasionally. I thought it was the alternator so I just replaced it. The battery light issue is solved but the dash light brightness is still extremely low whenever I turn the headlights on.
