Default headlight wiring diagram

Having trouble finding a proper wiring diagram for my 86 gt. The issue im having is while on dim my inner brights glow dim, and I assume the dual filament does too although of course can't see it. I am planning to do the relay fix to my flickering headlights but problem will be if I leave it like it is now I wont have anyway to disable my bright lights since it doesn't take much to power a relay.

Im trying to figure out what exactly would be causing it, been thinking of replacing my headlight switch but want to see what all connections it deals with and all I can find are simple diagrams that show a single feed to the multi switch. I just replaced the multi switch and have the same issue so it has to be something else.

My car has the lighting diagnostic center, and when I look at switches says something about visibility group, this referring to the fog lights? My car does have them as well. Any answers or a proper diagram would be great.

Hmm still shows a simple circuit at the switch...I really doubt its my multi switch since I still have the exact same issue. I got to thinking outside the box, what if something was creating a connection AT the lights? I can't seem to find info on this issue.
