The headlamps stop coming on and I replaced the headlamps bulbs and the high and low beam was working on the left side, and the low beam was working on the right side but the high beam didn't work on the right side, so now they done stop working again the lamps went out coming home from work one night I had to use the emergency flasher lights to make it home. What caused this problem and how to fix it?

These lights are controlled by the BCM so that might be going out but we need to check a handful of fuses, this guide can help, please check fuses # 3, 8, 9 and 24 in the fuse panel on the left side of the dash and fuses # 52, 38, 37 and 48 in the fusel panel under the hood.

If the fuses are okay lets do a CAN which can help gather any BCM codes to help confirm the failure. You can get a CAN scanner (Controller Area Network) which will work on most cars from Amazon.

here is a video to show you how:
