Alright, so I got up underneath the dash again tonight and tested the two terminals on the headlight switch circuit breaker. The light probe wasn't giving me anything (probably not a good ground), so I tested with the multi meter. Both terminals gave me 6.23 volts, which is the same as the battery terminals. Side note, on my multi meter it doesn't matter which probe goes where....if it's wrong it will just be a negative number.

While I was there, I poked the lead into whatever plugs I could reach on the switch to see if any of them had power. I didn't get anything. The ignition was on to "accessory" and the headlight switch was all the way out.

The switch is gritty when engaged due to the effects of sandblasting. I'm assuming puling it and cleaning it will help, but is there something else going on here?
