SOURCE: low beam headlights do not work, but high beam headlights do
Clyde,
I've been troubleshooting this same problem on a different vehicle this week, and I can give you the steps I'd take.
1. If both sides went out at the same time, the problem is *NOT* likely to be the bulbs.
2. Check the fuses to see if both low beam lights are on the same fuse. Many cars have one fuse for low beam and another for high beam, so both lights out at the same time typically means fuse blown.
3. If the headlights are OK and the fuses are OK, then the problem is *LIKELY* the headlight switch. In my case, AutoZone has one and it can be installed easily; but in your case, that may not be as simple.
Please post your findings or comments.
SOURCE: Left low beam is dim
The mechanic didn't hook up the ground wire. The system is using the other light as it's ground and when this happens it causes the other light to go out.
Check the ground wires

Ill guarantee you have an electrical short on the left side of the headlight switch,circuit.From here its immpossible for me to go any further.Good Luck.,Get A Wiring diagram.

I had the same problem with my 2004 ram, passenger side low-beam wouldn't work after replacement. Online I saw many things from socket replacement to Fcm replacement. What worked was to remove fcm (front control module) and clean appropriate contacts with small nail file . Repair took less than 1 hour and cost 0$, wish I could give credit where I found info.
