Hello, Schillo,
Sounds like to me you got some wires crossed. Here's away to check them without a meter. Take a hot test wire off the battery plus side and touch each wire on the back of the switch. Watch which lights comes on and mark with a piece of masking tape where that wire goes too. Another words if you touch your test wire to a wire and it lights up the head lights then that wire would be labeled, headlites. If nothing happens when you touch your test lead to the wire, then that is the hot wire to the switch. Then look at the back of switch and it should have some lables in the moulded plastic as to what wire goes where.

Sounds like you have the head lights on the dimmer side of the switch and the hot lead to the switch on the wrong terminal. You can figure the switch action out by running a hot lead to the terminal marked "B" as that would be the hot terminal for the switch. Then Use a 12V blub from a automotive lite as a check lite and besure to ground the case of the test lite and you orperate the switch to see what it does on the test lite and label each terminal. When them test lite dims that is the dash lite terminal. Keep going until all terminals are accounted for the number of wires your hooking up. Then it's just hooking up the tested wires to there proper place on the switch.
