SCRAP IT
Just to clarify.....you've lost dip beam? But full beam works?
Have you definately checked the dim/dip relay yea? The earths are pretty much below the headlights, screwed to the chassis rails, one each side.
I've not heard of them fucking up before, theres a lot of things that earth through those wires.

thing with AE's is theyll never tell you what it was really as if anything happens again youll always come back for another relay fiddle
usually when there an earth issue with a wire youll get disco lights and one headlight works other doesnt etc but your prob points straight to the main/dipped relay,take the relay out check its not been cleaned up terminals twisted to get better contact,or go back and ask him which wire it was he sorted as the probs intermittent and you just wanna try and sort it itself when it does it
