Sorry for taking so long to get to this issue.
Last weekend my father-in-law and I fixed the issue.
Relays were good.
Fuse block was good.
MFS good.
BCM good.
Issue was the TAN AND WHITE wire leading from the BCM to the fuse block.
In the center counsel is your air bag module.
With mine came some duct tape.
Did some resistance testing and found a section of wire from the bcm past that point to be an open circuit.
New wire in and high beams work as they should.
Your main harness for your car comes in the firewall and down the left side by your feet.
It meets the floor where the plastic trim meets the carpet.
Makes a bend in front of the drivers seat.
then bends up to the center counsel by your cup holder (also where your air bag module is located).
it then bends again toward the front of the car to the BCM.
The reason I filled that in is for someone that may have a similar issue.
The harness contains 2 for sure TAN AND WHITE wires.
The high beam one is the smaller of the two wires.
If I remember correctly on the BCM the wire is located in socket 42.

Thanks all for your help.

Well cool, glad to hear you finally have high beams, duct tape eh? Sounds like someone was there before you, and that can make tracing a wiring fault a nightmare as you can attest.

Cool, did that duct tape have AS initials marked on it!! Sounds like you've been to the centre of the HHR!
