My headlights do not go on and the hi-low beam does not latch in hi beam. The hi beam will flash when the lever is pulled back, but will not stay on.

I am assuming that this problem is the headlight relay - but correct me if I am wrong.

In the relay box, there are two large relays, labeled "101 102 E B" and the other "104 108 A E". The "104 108" says "Light Relay" on it's side, but that may be the fog lights as well? The other large relay doesn't say what it is.

I took the "104 108" relay out and resoldered all of the solder joint - no effect when I tried it.

Which relay is the headlight relay? Is there a relay 'map' somewhere on-line?

Also, if I can't get the bugger to work with resoldering - who has the best deals on relays?

While I'm at it, maybe I should get a spare fuel relay as well. Where is the fuel relay?

This is my wife's Volvo, so have to fix fast since I take my Volvo (940) to work and my son takes his 740 Turbo to work also. Wouldn't want to leave her Volvo-less !

Thanks in advance for the help.
