In the 1993 Ford Falcon ED station wagon, the high beam relay is usually located in the engine compartment within the fuse/relay box. Here are the general steps to help you locate the high beam relay:

Open the Hood: Make sure the engine is turned off and the key is removed from the ignition. Open the hood of your Ford Falcon to access the engine compartment.

Locate the Fuse/Relay Box: Look for the fuse and relay box in the engine compartment. It's typically a black plastic box with a removable lid. The lid might have a diagram or labels indicating the functions of various relays and fuses.

Identify the High Beam Relay: The high beam relay should be labeled within the fuse/relay box. It might be marked as "HIGH BEAM, " "HB, " or something similar. Refer to the diagram on the lid or any labels inside the fuse/relay box to confirm the location of the high beam relay.

Remove the Relay: Once you've identified the high beam relay, carefully pull it out from its socket. Relays are usually designed to be pulled straight out without the need for tools. Be gentle and avoid damaging the relay or its socket.

Replace the Relay: If you suspect the high beam relay is faulty, you can replace it with a new one. You might be able to find a compatible relay at an auto parts store. Make sure the new relay has the same specifications as the old one.

Testing: If you're unsure whether the relay is the problem, you can also swap it with a similar relay from the fuse/relay box, such as a relay with the same part number or similar function (e.G, another lighting relay). If the high beams start working after swapping relays, then the original relay was likely faulty.

Close the Fuse/Relay Box: After replacing or testing the relay, carefully insert it back into its socket. Close the lid of the fuse/relay box securely.
