Battery?

Tried to start my truck (02 7.3) the guages started jumping up and down. The glow plugs came on and went off norm. The starter spun kinda slow and the truck did not start tried a couple of times. The passanger side battery is bad, would that cause the guages to jump up and down. I am still on the stock CPS.

Always change both batteries when one is bad.
