I replace both head lamps because they were out and the new ones don't work either. I checked the fuses and they look good. I replace the low beam relay and they still don't work. The passenger side high beam is the only light that is working. What should I check next?

U need a headlamp control relay, that is the orange colour relay in the engine bay fuse box, turn your high beam on if u do not see the blue high beam indicator in the dash, just go outside now & move said orange relay side to side u should now see other high beam light come on & dash indicator on, so replace the relay & u r good to go, but bare in mind this relay new is almost $200, so go check your junk yard for a couple, good luck.
