Found three more relays tucked up above the fuse box. All three are Bosch 0 332 209 150, which appears to be a generic, inexpensive relay. Two of them are held together by a single piece of peel-and-stick velcro tape that held the pair of them up in the dash. They both click when I pull on the high-beam lever. That says to me that they are getting power from the high-beam switch when it is pulled, but for some reason it is not distributed. All three are wired like this: 30 BE 85 WE 86 BK 87 YW 87a - nothing Can't tell where the other end of the wires go - that will take some digging. My suspicion is that the third relay, the one that doesn't click with the high-beam lever, is somehow related to either the auxiliary battery or the AC-inverter. There may be a fuse, off of the fuse block, somewhere between these relays and the switches and headlights. Haven't found it yet. The ignition switch electronics check out with a VOM. There is continuity between 30 and X when I turn the switch. Still don't know what size/type bulbs are in the headlights. I know there are 55w units in the backup lights - found those last year. -- bcnu - Grungy (Houston, TX) opinions are just that.obviously. 60 dddPanel 69 Bug 89 Carat 04 Jetta TDI 05 Jetta Wagon TDI g r u n g y AT g r u n g y DOT c o m
