Don't you think it's simply voltage drop from a sudden high current demand?
Think about it: The ESP duplicates a pretty big stomp on the brakes to 1 or
more wheels, doesn't it? That energy comes from, what, the ABS pump
electrically applying a brake? ...not your foot, obviously. That could be,
say, a 50-amp draw, which is like 25% of what it takes to start the engine,
which we know dims the lights!
Just a guess.
