A new way to turn off my car!!...... But not a good one!! 700

Hey guys,
I'm having a little electrical problem here, something to do with my headlights. Here are the symptoms: When my lights are on I get that little red dummy light on my dash that usually signifies that a bulb is blown, but none are. My left low beam is noticibly dimmer than the right. when I put my left directional on, that dummy light flashes (this happens even if the head lights are'nt on, and it doesn't do it with the right directional). Now here's the good one, when I flash My high beams, the car stalls out completely!!!, but only when I fash them. If i just turn them permanently on It doesn't stall out. Also one night while driving, the dummy light started to flicker and the went out, it came on again as soon as I flashed the highs.

Sounds like some sort of short to me, but I havent had any time to really invetigate it. I hope that someone might be able to point me in the right direction before I get started.

Thanks in advance for sharing all of your volvo wisdom,
mike 87' 745T 300,000+
