Try checking your relays underneath the hood....and if that is not the case, your headlight bulb might be shot. Just because your high beams come on doesn't mean the bulb is properly working

i dont know about the 95 gen but the 96-00 gen uses h4 and it's dual filament so probably one of the filaments is shot on the bulb. happened to me once after changing lightbulbs, the filament was shaking around in the glass.

Same thing happened to my car. I just had honda fix it. IF its not the bulb that is bad then it is most likely the harness that plugs into the back of the bulb, my harness went bad and honda installed a new one and a new bulb for like $25 for me.
