I opened up both relays to see if they needed re-soldering (thanks to guidance from Lu), because my headlights were coming on by themselves (with the headlight switch in the off position), hitting the high-beams turned the headlights off, and other strange occurances.
I found no bad solder joints in the large realy, but resoldered anayway. I did notice one of the relay contacts had a pimple on it and I do remember hearing a lot of relay clicking (glovebox?) before the headlight problems started.
In the smaller relay, I found 3 joints that were cracked (at the right angle connection), so I resoldered those.
Didn't cure my problems totally, so I bought a new large relay ($63) from eEuro, problem solved.
