Default 1970 T/A lights on all the time?

Home stretch on the restoration and I have an electrical issue. Issue is that the external lights come on as soon as I install the battery cable on the battery post even though the headlight switch is in the "off" position. The headlight switch is new (Auto Zone #SW-144). I then replaced the HL switch with another new one and the same condition exists. I then installed a different High Beam switch I had laying around (Used) but that had no effect. One odd thing is that the HL switch has 3 detent positions rather than the typical 2. (parking lights and then Head lights). Does anyone know if this is the wrong switch or should I look in another direction? Thanks
