I have a problem with my high beams staying on when it calling for headlights. I'm trying to find the location of the dimmer relay on this model.

Hello,

First thing you might want to check is the headlight relay.It's located under hood in the #2 junction box.Here is a tutorial for you to view regarding how to test a relay:

Thank you. I found the relay box for the dimmer relay. The relay box had become disconnected and was hanging in the engine compartment. It was a defective dimmer relay.
