Default Headlights connected to Radio?!?

Topic may sound crazy but....I was working on my headlights and when I turn on the Low Beam the radio shuts off. Could be a loose wire somewhere or a short (hopefully not), but where should I start looking?

Thanks!

Guys I figured out the problem. Honda engineers take power away from your radio and accesories and gives it to the headlights when your battery is very low. When I turned on the low beams the radio went out and so did my radar dectecor connected to my cig. lighter.
So if this happens to you guys, your battery is just probably dead.

Cheers!
