[Rovernet] Blown fuses, need electrical help

[LANCE LA CERTE PSY D]

'70  3500s  w/o AC.      Had headlight wiring sorted out a couple of years ago by competent mechanic but I didn't have the opportunity to drive the car @ night until yesterday.    Once I began driving with lights on I decided to engage the brights.  When I subsequently disengaged the brights I had no lights what so ever.  Switched back to brights which lasted a couple minutes and then all headlights went dark  (running lights, brake lights, etc., all remained operational).       At home I replaced the blown fuse on "Headlamp RH Dip"---it blew repeatedly, but for some unexplained reason if I left the fuse out altogether, I had all four lights on if I engaged the highbeam switch.

Any help in running down this problem would be appreciated.
