Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what happens.

tried to bring up images but are very unclear one question is the black pink strip wire the ground if so it is open

The grounds are all black or black and white, did you click to enlarge the image?

I have disconnected the plug ins to the speedometer unit, I have no power to the red/ blue wire which should be the power source to the lights on dash. rechecked fuses all are good ground is good. What next? I am am not sure.

It looks like the headlight switch is bad then. I would replace it. Fuse #11 is good correct? Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know what you find.

both dimmer and headlight switch are new.

took your advice and replaced the new light switch with another new switch. still don't have power where needed.

Do you have power at the red and yellow wire going into the headlight switch?
