High beams on 9004 bulbs are not that great to begin with..they later went to HB2/9003 lamp..much better.
There is a relay listed for that model.

The question I asked was do the lights come on high/low beam with the stalk
switching to the two positions..the second question is do you have the Pass/Flash working ? That has to have the stalk held all the way towards the driver ..it has no set/lock position..and requires driver holding
