1. Is it plugged in
2. Is there a fuse
3. Is the filament still good

I've had this happen with two good headlights while I was rewiring. I can't tell you exactly where the problem is but all you need to do is follow the wiring diagram while tracing the wires on your car. I'll post up one I use for my 70. Hopefully it is close. There should be two wires coming off the fuse block with terminal connectors on the end to hook two headlight leads too. One is a white wire other is yellow. One high beam one low. You prolly have one high lead and one low lead hooked into the low from the fuse block and the same thing with the high lead from the fuses. Or a wire is loose in both these connectors and not making contact.
