I just want to give a nice thank you to those who keep posting the answers and solutions. Lost my hi-beams last fall at inspection time (mechanic let it slide), and search here told me about the infamous orange relay - and in fact the jiggle test proved it. I've been putting off the fix since then but inspection time is about here, so I decided to see if I could do it myself and save the cost.
Turns out the only difficult part of the procedure is removing the circuit board from the case. The soldering part was much simpler than I had been led to believe, I had not thought my ancient soldering skills and diminished critical eye-focus would be sufficient, but in fact the bad contact points were easy to identify by eye and re-solder.
Thanks again to all who make this board so great. For my next attempt, I will see if I can do the necessary body twisting to replace the cabin air filter following the detailed directions I saved from here.
