Check fuses, check globes (don't touch the glass) and connections.

Globes are unlikley to have both gone at once - but it's not unheard of.

My EF had a faulty fuse box, so check if the fuse connectors are loose. Or use a line tester.

It could also be the headlight relay.. these are near the coolant overflow bottle. I had a problem where my high beams would cut out occasionally.. a new relay fixed it.

Probably a relay mate.
