99 F250 SD CC 7.3 high beams don't work

Have a problem with my high beams not working. When I push the turn signal forward to turn on the high beams they turn off. Low beams work fine and the bulbs are good. Checked all fuses and they are good as well. They worked fine a week ago. Any ideas of what it could be?

Slyder22, welcome to FTE!

Have you verified whether or not you have power on the high beam wire when the multifunction switch is in the high beam position?

Also, how do you know the bulbs are fine?

I tried a new bulb in each socket without any luck. No i havent verified power out of the multifunction switch. Which wire should I test and what kind of voltage reading should I look for?

Figured it out, had a leaking windshield and was shorting out my fuse box. I had pulled fuses due to the all the things going crazy and I didn't get the high beam fuse put back in the right slot.
