This is normally a sign that there is a bulb that is not working properly. Test ALL bulbs, not just the headlight bulbs.

If your certain everything was good then must be wiring issue somewhere, either at dimmer switch or at one of the light assemblies.

It could also be a ground problem with one of the wires that connects back to the cars subframe. I am working on this same issue with a 2002 Ford Taurus right now.
