So last night, I was going to make a run for some groceries and when I turn the lights on as I was backing out of the driveway, only the parking lights came on. This is for my Lexus 450. I checked the headlight relay with one from a different Cruiser, that didn’t fix it. I checked the fuse box and the right and the left fuses are both OK.

I don’t really know where to check after that. The headlights are kind of like an automatic thing on this car, different from my 93 Land Cruiser. Is there another relay somewhere that I can check? The relay I checked was the one under the hood.
 
Bulbs any good? I know that sounds stupid, but people have rode around with only one working and didn’t know and then think they have a bigger problem than just bulbs when the one working one quits.

If you pull on the stalk for "bright light flash" do any or all light come on?

I think I tried that, but I'm not sure, I will for sure do that tonight to check. If that's it, then I should replace the stalk assembly, correct?

No. That's part of the diagnosis

I will take another look, but as of about a month ago they were both fine. Will check the obvious
