I'm pretty sure removing the switch should kill the headlights?
Like I said before with the switch off and keys out the lights are on but dim.
Turn the lights on regular (not brights) and they come on brighter.
Pulled the switch and te lights stayed dimly on (not regular on or brights)

That's as my first thought-but while the ignition was off/headlight switch was off an the lights remained on, I completely removed the headlight switch and pulled the harness off, and the lights still remained on.
I did the same thing with the multi function switch on the column and again...

Unfortunately I don't have a fsm.
***edit
I don't have a drl on my truck.
Checked and didn't see one of those under my hood.
Also I assume If I did have one my lights would have been coming on when I turned the truck on? Which they didn't do before.
Googling I couldn't find a "front control module" for my 2001 dodge ram 2500 5.9l gasser. Don't think it has one...

I'm out of ideas now though. I was hoping for something easier like the switch or multi function switch but apparently its not.
Just picked this truck up a couple weeks ago.
Since I got it the headlights have been a little finicky (mostly very dim headlights, passenger side headlight being much dimmer then driver side even when swapping bulbs from driver side) and also the "brights" indicator on the dash comes on/off...
