Re: headlight problem
when u turn ur high beams on, ur lowbeams will shut off. so thats normal.
are u running halogen or hids on ur headlights?
ur low beam filiment is probably out.
check ur fuses in the hood. there is a separate for the left and the right.

Re: headlight problem
You might try moving the connector around while the light is on and look for changes (don't break your bulb)
On the 01-03 voltage is fed to the common terminal of the high and low beam filaments, and then either the high or low beams other end of filament is provided ground to light.
