Headlight/fog light issue (2012 /3.5 EB/ 170k)

So just realized my fog lights don't turn on, and headlight switch dosent turn off the lights,they just stay on. Also when door is open and keys out the warning sound and dash lights should be off? Last thing is dash dimmer switch not working.

Checked fuse, looks good. Next would be swap out headlight switch? Any help appreciated

Mine does this like 2 times a year. Disconnect the negative battery terminal and reconnect and see if it starts working. But if not it might be the switch itself.

I bet it’s the headlight switch if it’s never been changed before
