No not seeing that light cycle. As soon as the key is turned to start--nothing.I really don't thick Dielectric Grease is your issue (I've been know to be wrong in the past & I'm not looking to discuss / argue the dielectric grease debate) but unless you have an entire tube of it in there preventing a tight connection... it's not your issue. Been using it in professionally in the field for electrical, telecommunications, & data connections since the early 90's & I don't think I could ever say Dielectric grease was the reason for failure on a properly tightened connection.
If your main battery cables are heating up it triggers a sign of resistance, which is a common problem with the NH cables they have internal corrosion that I mentioned in my first post (test them).
But now that I have time to re-read your post you mention "only fuel gauge and dim oil light on dash works".... are you not seeing the glow plug light cycle on & then off? That is a different issue...
