    Howdy,
    I just put a new bulb in the passenger side of my 2008 Touring. It burns brightly like it should but the high beam does not work. Could it be something that I did while replacing it or could it be the bulb itself? As I understand the HID bulb either works with both hi and low beams. Anyone else have this problem in the past? Appreciate any input.

    So the shield isn't moving, allowing the light to shine further down the road? That's how it switches between low and high beam on models equipped with HIDs.
