Hi there, first at all check for loose wires (black wire to ground) If all wires are in good shape, then verify the bulb is in good condition, if it's burned, I recomend to replace both bulbs by new ones, I hope It helps!
If you wired a new connector in you probably crossed the H/L pins on the headlight wrong on one side.
So switch one headlights wires. I did that once drove me crazy. Simple mistake to fix. Something similar to this is what is wrong.

Can't be bad bulbs. Only one filament is on at a time. So if they were burned out one light would go off and on not switch filaments for high/low each time.

hello i no you said you checked your fuse box go under your hood drivers side near your strut tower their problay is a second fuse box its black some times fuses is on the cover you have to unlock the side of cover lift off on inside of cover will list what is what sometimes left and right headlamps are seperate fuses goodluck
SOURCE: high beams wont turn on.
First place to start is with headlight switch. I did have a case many years ago when both high beams were blown out at once, but this is rare. When you have the headlight switch out, jump power from te low beams to the high beam contacts. If high beams come on, replace switch.

The problem is the headlight switch itself - it's one of the most common failures on these cars. The part, brand-new, is about $158 from ECSTuning.com. Replacing it involves removing the airbag and steering wheel - not difficult but a little nerve-wracking due to the power of the airbag.
If this is something you want to tackle on your own, reply back here and I can give you a step-by-step on doing the work yourself. Or you can go to a shop/dealer and just have them do it. They'll probably charge you at least two hours' labor, even though it's a 40 minute job. Let me know what you would like to do.
SOURCE: low beams don't work - both out at the same time.
DID YOU CHECK THE BULBS?
Testimonial: "spot on."

just replace the dimmer switch under the column its wore out on the low beam side
Testimonial: "It's great to know that there's not a whole lot more to check! I wouldn't have guessed I was so close. Thanks!"
