Default 2005 Honda Element headlight issue; low beam

Hey gang, my headlight low beam does not turn on at all, resulting in constant driving with only the high beams on.

I changed and checked the bulbs, fuses, and relay, and still, the low beam does not turn on.

A colleague of mine has a 2007 Acura facing the same issue, and he cannot figure it out as well.

Has anyone else experienced this issue, and what fixes were done to get the low beams working?

Any insight is always appreciated. Thank you.

If both low beams are not working and the high beam works, it likely is the ground side not getting to the bulbs.

Either an issue with the combination light switch, or the multiplex control unit that is built into the under-dash fuse/relay box, or wiring not delivering the ground.
