Lighting problems. need help ASAP

Car: 89 formula 350

Ok heres the deal.
Headlights come on and up but dont go down ( they do turn off though )
My tail lights dont come on and my marker lights dont work.
HOWEVER they will work if I use my blinker, hazzards, or step on the brakes, its jsut my night lights dont work WTF?

I replaced ALL the fuses in my fusebox, and I just put in the new switch today for the headlights. The only thing I can come up with now is the rheostat thats jsut behind the switch. Does anyone else have any suggestions?

I had to replace my headlight modulator. Had the same symptoms plus flickering headlights.
