headlight problem on my 90z

I have a 90 300z that I finally got running agin, then when I was leaving work last night the headlights shorted or got a severe voltage drop and defalted to brights with no taillights or dash lights, when I got under the hood I can hear and feel the Headlight dimmer relay buzzing on and off real fast. Ok thats the problem, so far trying to fix it Ive found a short between to striped wires that I repaired but it didnt work and I've checked the grounds for the headlights taillights and dash and that didnt help, I think it is etiher the headlight or bright switch, I want some more opinions on if anyone else thinks its the switch or what else it could be, becuase I dont want to buy a new switch and it still be broken.

Oh and it blew the fuze for the dash lights, and every time I put a new one in and turn the lights on it blows

alright in my 87 in the back where the taillights are there is a plastic molding and behind it are the backs of your tail lights. Check for any shorts and see if there is a connector there. if there is and it shorted that's your problem. I had the same problem with mine
