Default DC2 Head light switch broken

If I turn my headlight switch to the ON position the cluster and tail lights turn off (Headlights work as they should). But if I turn it to the ACCESSORY position on the switch the cluster/tail lights work (but of course there are no headlights on!). I am pretty sure its the switch because it seems like it turns too far and when I pull it back between the ACC and ON position it works like normal but is very sensitive and will just return to the fucked up headlights only position. Is there anyway to resolve this? Maybe wiring it to a switch or something? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Switches wear out and break, just get a new switch. If you haven't modified the wiring for the lighting, it's most likely not a wiring problem, so a fresh switch should solve it. They're not cheap, but it's the only non-ghetto way to solve the problem.
