Question Headlight troubles after replacing bulb

After replacing both headlights in my brothers 1st gen LS, one headlight's highbeam still does not work. Before replacing the headlights, neither highbeam worked, but the old light on the side of the car with the headlight that is still not working did not have a broken filament... which makes me wonder what else could be causing the highbeam not to work.... is there a right and left highbeam fuse? or could there be something wrong with the connector. TIA
