Check your fuses. But likely the wiring could be broken behind the bulbs from bending back and forth turning the h/l on and off.

Worn syncro maybe? I'd just shift it a little easier, lower rpm.

yep i agree with Chio.. i have seen it many many times,, the fuse also is problably blown,, cause when the wiring shorts it blows the fuse.
what you need to dois, remove the hed lite, open the wriring harness and at the bend, that;s where the wiring breaks, repair it, make sure to route it so it has some slack , so when the bucket goes up or down does not stratch the wiring .


And i agree as well on the worn syncros inside the tranny..
