I saw a thread on here somewhere, but of course, I did not bookmark it, or add to it, and I can't find it now....

But I bought a new High Beam Relay or Headlight relay, whatever it is called. It has an extra blade (30 IIRC). On the thread that I can't find, it was noted that the extra post has to be jumped to one of the 4 others.

Truthfully, that is what I can't remember. So does it jump to 56a, S, 56b or 56?

And if anyone can find the thread, please add it here.

Thanks,

Clark

Add me as another data point for a bad high beam relay...

I ordered a new one from NAPA and it came as the 5 pin style. I wouldn't have known what to do without you marvelous and smart people, with your instructions on adding the jumper. Hooked it up and the headlights now work perfectly!
