Default 2001 Suburban 4x4 startup

Hello All, Hope you can help
I have a 2001 Suburban, it runs great but, sometimes it does not want to start. To start it i have to jiggle or tug on the main wire harness that comes off the Fuse box in the engine compartment. After a couple of jiggles it starts. It happens more when it runs for a while. Starts good when cold. I have taken it to the Dealer and they did not now what was wrong with it. What happens is i turn the key to start it and all the lights on the instrument panel turn off, then i turn the key back to and they turn on.
So if you can please help.
Thanks
