Headlights won't go off

Headlights won't go off
Hi folks -
My headlights just won't turn off. This happened suddenly when I was testing them as we are preparing for a trip. I switched on the lights, and they won't go off.
I have the relay mod installed. And instead of one relay for low, one for high, I have four relays - two each for each side (1 high, 1 low). Since both low beams are on, it can't be just one of the relays. (though I did try replacing one anyway to no avail)
At first I thought it was the dashboard headlight switch, so I replaced that but no change.
I'm pretty sure that somehow I've got a short on the wire from the dash switch to the relay, but I don't see any problems and can't figure out why it would be triggered by turning on the headlight switch.
Any thoughts very much appreciated. I'm about ready to call in a pro on this one.
