Unplug the DRL module on the left fender well just underneath your brake booster. They should go out

You likely have the wrong bulb in the headlight

The usual cause is a bad ground.
Check the ground with a test lamp.

I have no high beam headlights just low beam with 12 volts and low beam with 8 volts and the high beam light stays on in the dash all the time

Check Hi beam bulbs they may both be burnt out, and check both fuse boxes. Headlights are offen on separate fuses Left/right so you don't end up with no lights at all

Adjusting headlights on 2001 dodge Ram 2500

The adjustment screws/nuts should be located either on the top of the headlamp assembly, behind the headlamp assembly, or near the frame rail by the radiator support.

You will have vertical adjustment screws for each independent beam (separate highs and separate lows, but will be same screw if highs and lows are the same bulb). You may also have additional horizontal adjustment screws as well

Park your car on a level ground 30 feet from a wall and measure the height from the ground to the bulb and mark on a wall (do this for highs beams and low beams if the bulbs are separate, if highs and lows are the same bulb, only do it for the lows)

For Low Beams: If the headlights read VOR, then aim the brightest part or cutoff part just below the mark on the wall. If it says VOL or nothing, aim them 2 inches below the mark on the wall.

For High Beams (if separate from low beams): Aim the headlight directly at the line you marked on the wall.

Running day lights,

I had a similar problem with my 2001 dodge 3500, the first thing I would check is to make sure that you in fact have high beams working when the light switch is turned on. The DR Lights use the high beam element of the headlamp and if they are burnt out then the DR lights won't be working. My problem was that I had no low beam headlights and everything else was working, turns out both low beam elements were burned out at the same time, replaced the bulbs and all was well. If this does not solve the problem then see if you can get a wiring diagram for the vehicle and go from there. It would seem strange that both of my elements burned out at the same time but that is exactly what happened.

hope this helps
