Guy,

FYI - Carol Stream is the daughter's name of the founder (Jay Stream) of Carol Stream.

You mentioned that the small light adjacent to the right large headlight only came on with the bright lights. This might be the high beams which only come on with the bright lights. There is another bulb in the small light fixture which comes on with the parking lights. It is the driving light and is much dimmer than the high beams. I had to replace my driving light and found out that only the Mercedes dealer carried these bulbs. If I recall the bulb was under $5.

I find it easier to measure the voltage at the socket to see if the power is going to the socket. This will help narrow down the cause of the problem.
