Your multifunction switch (wipers, cruise control, brights) is bad, or better put, has a bad ground connection to allow the headlights to work. Yes the headlights are on a separate switch, but they reference ground through the multifunction switch.

    no power, dead throttle, car will accelerate very slowly up to 80kmh and thats it. revs high when in neutral, but boggy and sluggish when in gear. t.p.s. was changed and it didn't make a difference.
