If you have no high beams on either side, a properly functioning indicator light, and some change in your low beams when switching, you have a bad connection in the wiring from your left low beam headlight to the remainder of the high beam wiring that goes to the right side of the car.
This will allow your left outboard low beam headlight's high beam filament to work, but not either high beam, and not your right low beam's high beam filament either.

Headlights: Just noticed the HI Beams are not working. (don't know last time they were working, but have been working fine previously. just noticed the change today.)
Neither side.
Lows seem OK.
The "high Beam indicator light" is coming on on 'click' and something is going on with headlights as the low beams are slightly changing intensity, but not getting anything at all on HI.
Before i waste three hours and then find I should have asked first, just thought I'd post something to see if any 'common occurrences' that create this scenario.
I don't see a 'fuse' for HI in the fuse box, but see a 'HI beam' in the 'dash disconnect'. Is that where the fuse box is separated from the harness under the hood? I'm not sure how that could be a problem, but I thought I'd throw it out.
Thanks,
