That new switch may go the same way, unless you relay those headlights and
figure out why there's such a huge draw, likely a bad ground. I'd stick a
cheapie switch in there till you get it sorted out, if it were me....(mine
did the same, and BTW, the switch from a Cabby will fit too, that's what my
second one is from)

The 16V rear calipers are notorious for siezing up, they don't spring open
properly when the handle is supposed to release them. There's a little
lever likel thing on the caliper that can be lubed ever so carefully, it
may buy you a bit of time, but you may be looking at a caliper to really
cure it. BTDT.
