245 Electrical Issue 200 1982

My battery/alternator light just started coming on at idle, and goes almost out when at driving RMP's. If I turn on the blower fan it stays on consistantly. I originally thought that the alternator was on it's way out. But with the headlights on, I just noticed I can't change from low to high beams, it stays on high beam. It will flash high beam with the lights off, but when I turn on the lights it is stuck on high beams. I can hear the relay when I pull the high/low beam lever, but nothing happens to the lights, stuck on high beam. The alternator is only about 6 years old at 5K per year of driving. Any suggestions? 1982 245
