Unhappy High beams not working! Help!

Selling my car tommorrow.

Low beams, flashers, turn signals, etc. all work. But when I switch over to high beams, they blackout. Both the full time high beams, and the flash to pass don't work.

They "both" don't work. So I assume the headlights aren't burnt out. And I checked the fuse, it's good.

Any ideas? Quickly please? lol

They went out at the same time though. Really doubt that could happen.

weirder stuff has happened. high beams went out on my '95 once, first one side than i swear less than an hour later the other went out. it just happens. the other day at work a car came in with no brake lights, normally that's a switch or wiring, but nope, all the tail light brakes were burnt out, both normal one and all three bulbs for the third light, freaky stuff.
