Headlight warning sound
On my 77 I notice that my headlight warning goes on as soon as I turn on my headlights. Keep in mind that one of my headlight actuators has a leak so the bucket won't raise when I turn the lights on but it will retract when I turn the lights off. Is this the reason the warning buzzer is on all the time with the headlight switch on?

The headlight warning buzzer on a 77 should only sound if the headlight switch is pulled 1st or second position, ignition in the off position, and you remove the key from cylinder. It warns you that the lights were left on.
On your fuse panel there should be a black box about 3" square. That is the warning buzzer. It might be damaged or the contacts inside are stuck.
