check around the engine compartment for the grounds connected to the fire wall, and the grounds going from the lights back make sure they are not rusted or broken, if the bulbs tho are a high and low beam in one, the filiment for the lows could be blown, and that would let the high beam light...high beams are on a different circuit then the lows... get a cheap multimeter and take the low bulb correction off connect the multimeter to it and then turn the lights on look to see if the meter has any voltage going to it..... remember a car runs on DC voltage.... not AC voltage.... if you dont get any voltage to thru the wires with the light switch on then it is a break in the line somewhere.... if you have voltage then it is a bad bulb.... hope this helps you out....

Thanks
