If you are only getting the low beams to work the floor dimmer switch may be wired wrong, a problem with the high beam wire from the floor switch through the firewall to the headlights, possibly bad headlights, or possibly bad grounds for the headlights on the radiator support. On this plug the other low beam and high beam wire connect from the passenger headlight socket. Normally there are only three wires down where the floor dimmer switch mounts and to get it to work both headlights they run a single low beam wire and a single high beam wire through the firewall bulkhead connector up to the driver's headlight plug. One will go to the headlight switch output wire, one to the low beams, and the remaining terminal to the hight beam wires.
