Maybe it's not earthed properly?

It's what happens when you're too tight to pay a fiver for a connector

Main beam wouldn't work if it wasn't earthed properly (if the wires are secure on the bulb)

I have two seperate earths on mine for each bulb, had to secure one as when I bought them it was dangling around..

If you like them why send them back? Just redo the wiring yourself.
All you have to make sure is that both earths connect to the earth feed (one of the spades on the H4 plug) and that each light (dipped and main) connect to the correct spade on the H4 plug, connect some spades to the bulb missing the connectors.
Pretty simple really
Unless you want to wire in that relay attatched to the back of one of the lights, then thats a whole new ball game
