High Beem LED

I have a 97 Nissan Maxima GXE Standard Trans. Something Weird Just happend to me this morning, I turn my lights on and the high beem indicator stays on. Even if I have low beem, or high beem on. The lights do change from high beem to low beem, just the led stays lit. Can someone please tell me if they know where to tackle a short? or if they had to fix this before.

make sure both bulb are clicking from low-beam to high-beam.

or try a different set of bulbs just to see if the indicator light goes off.

I checked the sockets, one of the connections is burnt up on the driver side. THANK YOU, I have replaced the passanger one 2wice already, one was with a factory clip, and the one I have on there now is a cheep "HELP" clip I picked up at a Auto Zone, and seems to be holding well. Looks like I have to go and buy anotherone for the otherside. Is this a common Problem with 97 Nissan Maxima's? it almost seems like there part doesnt hold high voltage to the bulb very well. I am using the recomended bubles for the car, and a stock altinator. Anyone have any sugestions?
