There is also a fuse box under you steering wheel on the left side. im not positive if that has a fuse for the seperate high and low beams, it may not. If youve replaced the bulbs were you careful not to touch them with your skin? if not the oils from your skin will eventually destroy the bulb, i had replaced the bulbs in my stock headlights, and i know not to touch them, but i still had one of the headlights low filament burn out, leaving me with only the high on one side, in your case both you lows may be burnt out or there in fact is a fuse. Check that panel under dash near the steering wheel, it just pulls out and has a diagram for all the fuses.
yes. there are 4 fuses for the lights, 1 for each side and for high/low. first off, did they both stop working at the same time? or did one go, then the other. now some quick test to figure out whats wrong: check filaments in bulbs. stock bulbs are dual filament, so if one goes, the other can still work usually(reason you have highs) another thing: you said highs work, do they work when you go to driving lights and pull the lever to click for the highs and they stay on. or do they only work when you flash them and wont stay on. if they only work when you flash and wont stay on when you go the the last click for driving lights, the switch on the arm may be bad and need to be replaced. (you understand, hard to explain without saying verbally)
