Default protege 2001 headlight problem

hi people i have a problem with my headlights ( day lights):

it started 2 weeks ago my rightlight wasn't working ( it was on and off ) after it started working again but couldn't turn my lights off i had to play around( high beam low beam on off a few time) before getting them to shut off. now both lights right and left don't work at all only high beams work. Any one knows what my problem might be is there a relay that is ****ed or something

and yes i did change the bulbs and nothing

thanks

this is a common problem with these cars. actually, i think that we need to start saving this thread as a top thread. i (and a few others)have always found the problem in the grounding. there are clips that go over the back of the bases and the lights have a grounding point there. clean these clips and the backs of the lights and that should clear up the problem. it did for me.
