Exclamation Electrical issues

I had a short on my headlights and the plug that is connected to the headlight switch melted... I replaced the plug and headlight switch.. checked all fuses and light bulbs.. I now have headlights and rear foglights but no dash/console lights..also I don't have any marker lights... I checked all the relays that I could find behind both kick panels panels behind the glove box and under the seats..

All of them were good.. pulled the main fuse in the engine bay cleaned the contacts it's good.. any ideas or help would be awesome... Am I missing any relays?...

1997 disco 1 225,354 on the body/clock... 34,678 on the new motor

Thanks Chapman..

Left stalk switch, bad contact. Take off the steering wheel shroud, remove the stalk/switch and locate the burned connection.
