Dim headlights aren’t working

[6-eyed]

How come my headlights aren’t working when I replaced the bulbs 18 months ago? Car headlights are supposed to last longer than that. The high beams work, but not the dims. Did I buy some crappy bulbs? Or is there an electrical switch problem?

easy check with an ohm meter

either check the bulb itself for continuity or check for power ...whichever is easiest

i wouldnt bother checking for grounds because the highbeam works

also check for fuses..some have them some dont

Have you tried spaying in electrical contact cleaner to the low/high beam switch?

They make light bulbs cheap I'm burning through them a lot ,cuz my lights are on all the time..
