Default Headlight (High Beam) fuse problem?

when i did my stat inspection, i found out that my right high beam is not working. strange thing is that it still didn't work after replacing the bulb. could it be the fuse? can anyone help on locating that please?

much thanks!

Default if it is only one side it is a bulb, or electrical issue. Not fuse for each side

there is a fuse for both together not each. Check the plug I had a similar issue with one of my fogs, but it turned out to be a loose plug. I knocked it just loose enough when I was working in the engine bay once. good luck

Default Two fuses for high beams. Fifth and sixth from right in top row. So says the service manual

Does the owner's manual say something different?

Yeah, carmakers keep changing stuff. I once had a car with no high beam fuses at all!
