Bulb go bad? Should be 2 filaments in each headlight bulb....if it works on brights it could be that 1 of the filaments broke in the bulb

Check for a burned out fuseable link down by the starter. Hope that helps! Jim

I would check the dimmer switch is getting power from the headlight switch first. If so, I would replace the floor-mounted dimmer switch and make sure it is grounded to the floorboard during installation.
