Default headlight don't open

hey everybody, wifey called me while I'm out on the road.(drive our truck)
She said headlights wouldn't open, but they were on. Since only Gina have about 36 hours at home this weekend, wanted to get some expert advice on where to look for the problem. We haven't had any issues up to now.
Thanks for any advice!

See if they pop up if you put the high beams on.

Also, if you have Twilight Sentinel turn it on and cover the light sensor at the defrost vent in front of the driver and see if they pop up.

I find it hard to believe motor fuses 3 and 4 are bad in the engine fuse box but check them if the above does not help.
