Not sure what you mean when you say "when I turn the lever loose"?
It sounds like the switch is faulty. If both headlights come on and then go off when you touch the lever, you know it isn't the bulbs, relays or fuses because they start off working.

turn on what lights? head lights. if yes, 1 click or 2.? what rear lights there are many tail/park brake backup? car drives prefectly, (shoe drops) all else works?
I would want to know what the code is first. You may have to go to an independent garage for help. Auto parts stores can scan the ECM but not always the body computer.
The brake and turning lights are on a different switch than the tail lights. Check the fuse for the brake light circuit. Check to see if your front turning lights work. My guess is they won't work either.
Many Grand Cherokees have had this type of issue. The thread is lengthy, but does cover just about every type of issue known with the tail/brake lights.
behind head light,, on passenger side, on fenders underside ,remove head light completely,, drill 2 inch hole into protective shield, this will expose switch
You have a bad auto headlamp sensor. It is located in the defroster vent area at the base of the front windshiel. See this link for help in removal and repair. http://www.wjjeeps.com/lamps/headlamps.htm#SENSOR
