Angry headlight problem please help

Ok guys Im having a weird issue with my headlights. They wont turn on with the headlight switch but, when its on Auto they will turn on if i block the sensor. Obviously the blinkers are on the same switch and they work fine kindof ........sometimes my passenger side front blinker wont work and other times it works fine. Im sure its short somewhere but have no clue where to start. Any help guys????

No clue if there is a short, but I would make the assumption the turn signal stock is messed up. Get a replacement and see if that fixes it.

When the signal doesnt work it acts like the bulb is blown on that side meaning the rear blinker and the indicator light flash but flash fast like there is a blown bulb so Im not sure its the switch.
