Re: Headlights and Dash Lights go out when turned fully on
My '96 (1.0 l , non-composite lights) behaves in a similar way, except that the dash lights are unaffected (remain ON) by having the headlight switch turned to the fully ON position.
I believe the wiring harness, light switch, relays, and/or fusebox are not up to the task (under-designed) for the currents involved.
Check for connector corrosion or wire-insulation or plastic melting in your fusebox near the hood-release. After removing corrosion from the main circuit that feeds into the fusebox, I have observed a temporary return of the high-beams' willingness to stay ON when the headlight switch is forward and for the headlights to remain ON when the switch is in the fully ON position. Then I'll hear a relay click and they're off again with the switch in the 'fully-ON' position.
I think wiring up additional driving lights might be the easiest solution...
