Hi Darrel,
    The head lights circuit current travels from the battery, ignition switch, light switch, headlight dimmer / flasher switch, fuse
panel to the lamps.  After it gets to the head lights it has a  ground return path to the battery.
    The ignition switch seems to be the most common failure point with the light switch a close second.
