Are you sure it's your high beam and not your DRL. Your DRL light will always be on through the day when you do not have your lights on. Indicating that your drl's are on. DRL (Daytime Running Lights) are your high beam headlights at a low wattage. The only other sympton could be that you have a burnt out headlight and this is telling you so, by having the H.B. light on. on your dash.

1998 Windstar - the high beam lights won't shut off
CHECK THE DIMMER SWITCH. THE SWITCH MAY BE "STUCK IN HIGH BEAM POSITION. THE STEERING WHEEL WILL HAVE TO BE REMOVED. ANOTHER THING TO CHECK FIRST IS THE HIGH BEAM RELAY. THIS MAY BE UNDER THE HOOD IN A FUSE PANEL OR UNDER THE DASH. HOPE THIS SHEDS SOME "LIGHT" ON THE SUBJECT..lol

My left headlight highbeam light works and the lowbeam don't why
the filament on the low beam burnt out. but the high beam didn't. You have a filament for each. 1 for high beam and 1 for low beam in the same light bulb. You need a new head light.

Head lights not working
Check your operators manual. When the daylight running lights are on you can't turn on your high beams. The car has two circuits. Remember to turn your main headlights on at dusk because your taillights are not on with your day running lights and someone can rear end you. You have to fully turn on your headlights in order to get access to your highbeams. Good luck!
