Subject: headlight on, no turn signals; parking lights on, fast turn signals

Hello,
Since removing the dash in my 84 Westy to replace my front blower, I am
bedeviled by this lighting/wiring issue.
When the headlights are off, the turn signals and hazard light behave as
usual. When I turn on headlight to the middle parking position the turn
signals flash twice as fast as usual. When I turn the headlights on all the
way, the turn signals don't work at all and the high beam indicator on the
dash won't go off when toggling the high beams. I think I must have
unplugged something by accident or pulled something loose, but I'll be
darned if I can figure out what it is.
I tried to trace wires following the Bentley, but quickly gave up. I can't
even find a diagram that indicates which fuse is for what.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Brian
84 Westy 'The Ark'
