Default Low beam has me puzzled

The low beam lights on my hatch do not come on. Parking lights work fine, High beam works fine, but the low beams won't come on. The bulbs are brand new and I am getting power to the bulb conectors and the fuse box. Main fuse is okay too. What could it be? Also, the switch sometimes does not click into high beam, could this be the problem?

check the relay under the hood, that could be it. at the moment i can't really tell you how, but you can go to a junkyard and get one or borrow from a friend.

the switch could also the the problem. i haven't had luck with this(but that's like me) but find a schematic, and put 12v to the low beam output from the switch. if they work, it's the switch, if not, it's the relay or wiring

i have the same problem with my passanger side light. i hooked a volt meter up to it and tested all the connections and the low beam wasnt gettting any juice. and the fuses are fine. my guess is the connecter is screwed up. i havnt fixed it yet but im sure thats what the problem is.
