or... check the plugs that plug into the headlight, they might be burned up (from running cheap ass "xenon" lights...they use too much wattage and burn up the rubber)

I had this similar problem also, first it was my plugs, then it was the fuse, then it went back to the plug, i switched the headlight and the fuse and the plug and it worked. It'll be irritating and annoying i tell you. Hope you get it fix.

change youre none working headlight to the side where low beam is working. If the low beam is working on the other side, its something in your wiring/switch, If not, its just the light

hope this help
