Fortunately high beams don't go thru the bulb failure relay, just the step relay under the hood and the main headlight relay by your feet.

Do they work when you try to flash the highbeams rather than switch them so they stay on? Does the high-beam light in the instrument cluster light up?

If the cluster light comes on and there are no high beams under either On or Flash, then I'd look for a wiring fault between the step relay and the headlights. The warning light would indicate the step relay is working correctly.
