Default Lf hi beam not working

Left hi beam not working so I changed the bulb.
the hi beam still wasn't working.if I disable the automatic head lamps feature then my DRL are on.
I think The DRL use the two high beams in series to get the DRL. So if the LF DRL and LF HIGH BEAM are the same bulb why is it not working ?

I had a similar problem the right high beam headlight would not work and there was no power going to the socket someone told me to replace the switch and I tried all the fuses in relays so I just ran a jumper wire from the positive plug on the driver side over to the positive on the passenger side and voila now I have both high beam headlights again

I learned that the headlights have more fuse protection than one would typically think. I had similar issue once and was fully confused to the point that I figured that there was some wiring type issue, and took mine to a shop. They replaced some fuse and it was back to perfect.

I would not recommend bypassing a fuse, for what that might be worth. . . .
