Headlight Switch Issues!!!

Got a 89 f150, replaced the switch the female end (that plugs into the switch). I am still having the same problem.... When I pull the switch out only the headlights work, I have to push the switch in a lil bit to get the parking light and tail lights to come on with the headlights. When I pull the switch out to just the parking lights they dont turn on. Please help!!!

Did you replace the switch or the switch end of the harness?

Ck. fuse #4, 15 amp at the fuse panel, feeds Tan/White wire to the headlamp switch. The switch should feed the Brown wire while in both tail and headlamp positions.
