bulb problem

kay i installed some new 65/55w headlight bulbs and the right one i had a problem getting the stupid fastener(the black thing that spins) on the back of the headlight... i finally got it on but i may have bumped the bulb 1 or 2 times on the side of the light socket hole...


anyways, the highbeam doesnt work on it now, the lowbeam works fine, just not the highbeam, is that going to cause any problems ? or jsut the fact that i wont have the highbeam on that side??

thanks

Must of hit it or bumped it pretty hard.Hope you didnt touch the bulb with your fingers the oil from the finger prints create a hot spot and reduce the lofe of the bulb.
Shouldnt be a problem other than only having one high beam.
