Default Drivers Side High Beam Won't Work

Hello! My drivers side high beam won't work. I originally thought it was the bulb, the new bulb does the same thing. The passenger side bulb will go to high beam so I tried that bulb in the drivers side and it will not go to high beam.

Anyone have any past experience with this particular issue?

Thanks!

I would start with the procedure in your service manual.

2000 service manual, your year may be different

That picture is from my factory set of 3 manuals for a 2000 model.
I don't know of any aftermarket manuals that are comparable. I found mine used for a couple hundred, probably off eBay.
If you have access to an online repair service I think you can download everything but I haven't done it and find the online documentation available in the sticky post area pretty hard to find things in. But they are free and better than nothing.
Naturally if you have a later model than 2000 the information may not apply to your car.

I scored a set on E-bay for about $230! Thanks for the tip!
