NO Low Beams ---- Need help!

I got the RS back on the road about two weeks ago and I'm taking some of this weekend to try to iron out the few gremlins I've found.

The one I'm having trouble with is getting my low beams to work. When I switch to high beams all four lamps come on, but when I go to low beams it is just the running lights and none of the lamps.

Any tips on what to look for? Could this be a problem stemming from a faulty headlight/dimmer switch?

If I can get this figured out, then the car will be totally streetable and my only problem left to conquer will be the passenger window motor and/or switch. From there its just a matter of tuning the PCM.

Could be either the dimmer switch, or the low beam filament is out on both headlights (possible but not likely)
