Default Dash light/Tail light oddity

This just happened, so I haven't had time to search/research, but I thought I would run it by the group in hopes that someone here might have the answer.

When I turn my lights on to the parking light position, everything is normal. One more click to turn on the headlights, and I lose my dash lights, right tail lights and right front parking/marker lights. Any ideas? Switch? Relay? Should I just sell the 993 and get a 918?

CGT over 918 for sure. Otherwise that is the extent of my help for the matter at hand!

Just a hunch but since they all work in the parking light position it's not a loose ground or individual circuit issues so my money is on checking the plug on the headlight switch.
If the plug is fully in place and the plug and socket are clean just replace the headlight switch, $86 at Pelican.
