93 sc300 headlights flash when brake is pressed

My 93 sc300 headlights flash (go dim for a second) when brake pedal is pressed. I have changed the alternator, and the ground wire from the battery to the block. Also when at an Idle, with hvac fan on, turn signals make the fan power go down.

Any ideas?

Thanks for any help.
