alternator/battery

Good day
I have a question concerning a rough idle/heavy vibrations when a high current curcit is turned on, rear defrost, heater motor,and also engine cooling fan.
Any suggestions/ideas?
Thanks in advance

Sounds like to much draw on your charging system. Alternator may be going bad. Voltage drop is effecting the ECM and associated sensors performance.
