a long jumper wire and test light your best friend. move the floor mat remove four screws
for the dimmer switch now its on the floor. jump from battery+ to each switch terminal.
one is low and one is high beam. the third is power from the headlight switch. High beam
indicator wire you have is on the wrong terminal 'foot switch'. Now test light, head switch
on find power one of the three now jump the other two find low find high. when you find
high beam the indicator goes there because your indicator light is on the power terminal
OK after you have found with a jumper nice high and low on the foot switch with jumper and that reads good with a volt meter disconnect jumper now read the voltage
of that terminal headlight switch on now what volts. wimpy then its either the dash
switch or the feed to the switch that comes from breaker that could be lazey. Please
understand I do this all the time its my way but I'm not good at writing. The elements
are 1 strong feed to dash switch 2 strong feed to dimmer 3 strong feed from both terminals on foot switch and 4 then its the harness from foot switch to the headlights. sam

BigJob offers some good advice. The hi/lo switch is often the culprit in this circuit in regard to the issue you are experiencing.
Many times by simply pushing that switch in and out rapidly a number of times, it will clean the internal contacts enough to remedy your issue.
Still, test that switch... they're cheap enough if you need to replace it.
