Brights Blue Indicator Light Comes on Automatically

At first I would be driving along with my low beams on and the blue brights indicator light would suddenly come on. At first I could push the switch forward to bright and then back to low and it would shut the light off. Now most of the time no matter if I have the lights set to hi or low the blue indicator light is always on. And when I switch back and forth between hi and low there is no change in my headlight angle or brightness. Have any of you ran into this or have an idea of what is going on? I thought it was because I had an alternator that was going out and a weak battery but when I switched them both out for new, I still have the problem.

It's the combo switch... they are notorious for electrical probs. Most likely the same kind of problem as this: https://www.zdriver.com/forums/240z-280zxt-s30-s130-tech-tips-275/dim-headlights-not-noh-moh-22117/
