Default Head light issue

Okay guys I need help! My drivers side headlight has gone out and I cant fix it. I tried three diffrent bulbs nothing. I put the multimeter on the plug and all seems to be fine I have three positions on my plug. The two outside holes show 11.3 vdc on low and 12.3 vdc on highbeams. The center hole which I am assuming is my ground shows nothing as it should. With the light plugged in I have high beam but no low beam. All my other lights and systems seem to be working fine. I have searched and read about issues with the FCM going out but in all of those posts other lights or systems have been affected not just one headlight. Does anyone have any suggestions. Also if it helps diagnose when I turn the swich off my two hot legs at the plug are dead which one would expect.

Thanks in advance,
Justin

have you tried using the ground at the at the bulb while checking the voltage? just to ensure it has a ground who knows mayb the ground burne for what ever reason ? or try to run a second ground to double check. cause if you have around 12v at the bulb and a good bulb it has no choice but to work. just a thought good luck
