You'd made lots of great comments.
I realized this morning that I'd had both headlight bulbs replaced 2 years ago. I called the dealer and they confirmed it. I've seen others have this problem over the years of bulbs going out too quickly.
This leads me to believe that some of your comments related to contacts and 'orange relay's' might be important.
My gut reaction is that the quick and dirty solution is to just replace the bulb with another H7. They're only $10 - $12. If it works, it gives me time to consider what else might be going on without having a one-eyed vehicle.
