The switch is hard to turn. I cant even turn it to the left or right parking light positions even though when I removed the knob everything was centered.


Bingo!

If everything was fine before you removed the knob, I'll bet you installed it indexed incorrectly.

What you thought was the "off" position was actually the left all night park position... Two click clockwise would not be "headlamps on", instead would be the true "off" position, and the stem would by design return to fog off position.
