Kathy,
There are a couple of places to start looking for the problem. There are two filaments in the bulb/s a (high & low side) and everything you describe indicates the low side is not working. Here are a couple of the possiblities:
a. Bad bulbs (half of the bulb can be bad) Incorrect bulbs or installed incorrectly. Bulbs should be double contact type.
b. Broken ground wire. This wire is the black one.
If you have a test light you can check to see if power is going to the bulb, and check the ground.
