Default Aftermarket Headlight Problem

I have a 97 Civic EX. I have owned the car for just over a year. I purchased it as a commuter car for my job. The car was stolen last summer and recovered the next day with the stereo, tires, wheels missing. I had everything replaced by the ins. company which is all good. Over the winter I have been having problems with my headlights burning out. I have been replacing them as needed. This time I went from 70 watt (blue color) to 55 watt (clear)as that was a suggestion as to what may of been the problem (too much heat). But now I have no power to 1 side the high beam and the running light work on that side. I am wondering if anyone may have an idea of where to start looking. There was a little moisture inside the headlight enclosure and that was a theory. I have since dried it out and added some sealant around the edges where it looked like moisture may be getting in. Which I believe accumulates due to the fact there is no heat on the inside to keep it warm and dry. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

check ALL fuses. Each head light, high and low have their own fuse.
