Hello,

I would start by checking the headlight fuses because each headlight has its own fuse for high and low beam.

Here is a guide to help you get started.

Here are the headlight wiring diagrams so you can see how the system works.

Check out the diagrams (Below)

Please run some tests and get back to us.

Cheers

It was the fuse nice work I didn't think it had separate fuses. Learn something new everyday. I love this site.
