Headlamps come on but wont go off!

Hi people.
I am currently restoring my 1970 Elan S4 and Its all done and ready for its MOT.......BUT there seem to be a problem with the headlamp wiring. The headlamps come on when they come up and go off when they go down but only in full beam mode. In dip beam mode they come on when they come up but don?t go off again when back down!
I managed to solve this problem by disconnecting the main beam warning lamp from the steering column loom but cant for the life of me think how this is affecting the headlamp relay stopping it from switching off??
Can any one please help as its really doing my head in now!
