On the systems I am familiar with the headlight switch has a circuit breaker built into the switch and can only be repaired by replacing the switch. The first thing I would do is measure the current to the headlights to make sure there is not a short in the wiring harness. If you don't have anyway to measure the current, unplug one head light at a time and see if that makes any difference. Normally the breaker only protects the headlamp circuit and not the parking or tail lights.
