Drivers side bright not working

On my 2002 7.3 excursion the drivers side brights will not work. The low beams come on, but no brights. Passenger side is fine. Checked the fuses, all is fine. What could it be?

Swap the bulbs and see if the problem moves.

I did just replace the bulbs a few days ago. I bet thats it. Would it be a defective bulb if the brights work and lows dont? Its the same bulb.

I would lean toward the bulb being bad, but it could be a few other things. If I remember correcty, the have one fuse for each lowbeam, but only one fuse for both highbeams. So if one highbeam works, the other one should too unless you have a socket or wiring problem.
