Headlights

Headlights dont work. 66 F100. Replaced bulbs and switch. No luck. Ground is good. Are there any other breakers or fuses in that system? Parking and tails work fine. No lights or brights. Any ideas?

Did you check the dimmer switch to see if it was bad?

That would be my guess at this point. Let me know.
