A few months ago, I replaced my stock headlights in my 2008 CRV with a couple of Sylvania Silverstar Ultras. Everything worked fine for about 3 months. Yesterday, I noticed that my low beams weren't working anymore. My high beams worked though. I replaced the stock headlights back in, and the low beams don't work with those either, hoewver the high beams do work.

Anyone know what the issue might be? I'm scheduling my car for service this weekend (oil change, 20K maintenance), so I might just ask them to fix it.

Check to see if there is a fuse/relay(Day light running switch?). If that is good then replace headlight switch.

Yah could be a relay or a fuse. Worst case is you damaged the stock wiring if the bulbs were a higher wattage than stock and the stock wiring gauge wasn't sufficient.

Your low beam bulbs are probably burned out again; when you replace the bulbs, make sure your greasy fingers are not touching the glass part at all. The high beams and low beams are independent, they have nothing to do with each others except being in the same housing.
