You say you replaced the dimmer switch. That's a good place to start troubleshooting. Disconnect the new switch and check the voltage on the connector. One of the wires should have 12 volts whenever the lights are one.
If you don't have 12 volts the problem is before that switch. It could be the head light switch on the dash or maybe that switch isn't getting 12 volts.
If the dimmer switch is getting 12 volts then the problem is after that switch. It could be the wiring or the head lights.

I think I found that the headlight switch has a bad connection where the red/white wire connects. Have a new switch on the way.
Do you know where I could get the connector that connects to headlight switch ?
Wires seam loose.
Thanks for the info.
Could still use picture of fuse box if you can.
