Yet more issues with my 88.....

Hey gang,

Last night I decided to take the camaro out, started the car went to turn the headlights on and they blinked for about half a second and died. Taking my interior lights, cigarette lighter, power locks, and the rear hatch motor out as well. Does anyone know of any place i can start? I've checked all fuses and anything somewhat out in the open for broken wires/loose connections and I didn't come across anything. I'm just spinning my wheels here so any help would be well...helpful. Thanks in advance.

I looked at the grounds this morning, everything checked out. I pulled the headlight switch out and I've got power to the switch but nothing after so I'm going to replace that switch and hope that it solves the problem.
