SID registers "FRONT LIGHT FAILURE" when the high beams are activated. The bulb has been replaced. All light fuses are still intact, including fuse #10 (high beam headlight left) under the hood. Even when the bulb is replaced by a known-working bulb, it still doesn't light. Suggestions?

U need a headlamp control relay, big orange relay in engine bay fuse box, shake it side to side inplace then check light or just leave on high beam while doing that, may come back on for a while then go back out, anyway u need a relay.
