Sometimes the connectors for those kind of bulbs go bad and get burned up inside... give it a good wiggle with them turned on and see what happens. Un-plug it and look for any corrosion or charring inside the connector.Pete ::::>>> resident LED addict and CFI defector LED bulb replacements

Stupid question, but you're certain the bulb itself is good? "Newer" makes me think it may have also been used. Try swapping them side to side with the known working high beam bulb. If the problem doesn't move with the bulb, its probably the connector or a break in the wiring right near the connector.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).
