If it's dim, how do you know it's the high beam staying on? This sounds typical of a bad ground. Wiggle the bulb's connector. If you see a change, suspect corroded terminals in the connector. If there is no change, follow the wiring harness back until you find the ground wire. Check for a loose or corroded connection where it's bolted to the body.
