High-low beams not working

Hello, I have a Huyndai Accent 2006.
1 month ago, my low beams started to act strange : sometimes they were working, sometimes they were not.
Then now, my low beam and high beam quit working. Flashing my hight beam works tho.
its been 4 days now that my lowhigh beam do not work.
The light bulbs are fine, I put new ones. I had a friend tested the voltage of the light to make sure they were fine and everything is ok.
My *blinkers* are working fine, my parking light too, break light ect too, only the low\high beam.
I've been told that I might have to change my *switch*, but I just want some experts opinion before getting into that. Thank you !

Check for headlight relay and fuse. Some cars have separate circuits for head light flasher and normal high/low beam. From your description, I would suspect a bad connection to/from relay or relay itself.

2006 Trailblazer low beam headlights out high beams work.

Bulbs are like people - some last a long time, some croak early.

Meanwhile the part they plug into can be cleaned out and restored if metal is still there.

My low beam lights sometimes stop working i still have high beam and daylight runing lights after a while they come on.2009 elantra dealer can't find problem.

when the low beams quit try switching from high to low and back and see if low beams stay on, if they do it may be the dimmer switch, if that doesn't change anything suspect the headlight switch.

1997 Hyundai Accent is acting funny in the headlight department. At first my day-time running lights didn't work and low, high, and flashers were fine. Now, day-time running lights work, high beams work,...

There's only one relay, but two fuses, both located in the underhood fuse/relay box.

53ee18a.jpg Sounds like you have a wiring problem since sometime the left works and the right doesn't, then the right works then the left doesn't. Might be the multi-function switch on the steering column in combination with the connector M10-1, EM01, SE14 & 16.
