A bad socket would cause one to light and the other not too and vice versa on high beam?

It must have been a coincidence but both sockets were bad.

After the new sockets were put into place everything is working like it should.

I'm still tempted to take out the new switch and put the old one back given the switch was not the issue but I think I will just take it as a lesson learned.

Thanks for your help and guidance.
