Default Just wanted to introduce myself

Hello everyone, I just recently purchased a 2006 Monte Carlo SS 5.3L. I had a 2009 Chevy Cobalt LS prior to this. Here is a pic of it (bad night picture)

Just had a weird "glitch" tonight, while driving if i have the fogs on and flip the high beams on the dash lights dim and it knocks out power to the radio (turns off) but after a few seconds it comes back on. Its also not as bad if i turn the fogs off and just use the hi/lo beams....any ideas? I looked at the battery terminals and the pos has a good amount of corrosion. Could that be the issue here?

Welcome. Nice ride! I would definitely clean that corrosion and make sure everything is tight.
