The Ford Barn

Good morning fellow Ford lovers. I have a 1936 Ford Model 68. I'm just starting
to chase ghost in my wiring. When I have the headlights on and touch the brake my headlights turn off, when I release they come back on. I am noticing that prior to touching the brake that the lights have an inconsistent blink and the amp meter dances a bit. My first thought is that the generator is acting up and not fulfilling enough power when I press the brake to run both. The car has all new wiring and fully restored. The headlights are led as well. Any help would be appreciated.
