Hi Paul,
If everything is original,,,,,, and you replaced the headlight switch , and,,,, it is still opening the breaker in the switch, that is most likely caused by an excessive current draw in the headlight circuit.Might be a good idea to check the wiring from the switch out to the headlights, a wire may be pinched or possibly rubbing through to ground.
You might check the fuse that supplies the headlights for a corroded or poor connection.
