Default Headlight high beams and low beams on together. Need a fix

I have HIDs and one of them recently burned out so the new bulbs are on order but I noticed today that the one low beam I have left is on but the high beams are on as well but the indicator light for the brights is not illuminated on the cluster. Any ideas???

Thanks,
Dan

As the other poster said, check the fuses. The park lamp fuse in the fuse block on the drivers side of the dash also controls the BCM (Body Control Module).

If this fuse blows, not only will you not have park lamps, but the headlights will not work correctly either. As a matter of fact, if this fuse is blown you will only have one light on in dim, and ALL lights come on in bright.

I just removed the HID kit from my Blazer today and replaced it with all regular bulbs (brand new) highs and lows. Same problem as before but all of the fuses look good. Any help is always appreciated
