at first they lit up and then after a test ride they blow/don't work anymore. I did it with the low beam and then the high beam, and the light uses a 12V 55/60W H4 bulb

I think your problem is the high wattage on the bulbs 55/60 WOW!! Also check the charging system test how much the R/R is putting out may not be regulating and putting out to much. Alleyoop
