Bluebird headlights dimmer

The foot switch on my bluebird 1997 that switches the headlights from road to high died last night and the headlights won't turn on anymore. I took it apart with the idea of shorting the wires, and I have for wires that were connected to it :
-2 whites
-2 black
-1 red

I'm natively assuming I should read 12v DC on the red (I'm not) and that the blacks and whites go to either the high or road pole of the 2 headlights. Not reading any voltage on the wires (with headlights switch to on), I now assume something shorted. Looking at the electrical panel, I'm at a loss as to which breaker controls headlights... But all breaker check good. Any ideas to get me back on the road.

Was it blown? Do you have an extra "t" in "natively"?
