Headlight Relay (2k2)

Does anyone know where the headlight relay is located on the 2k2? I don't have the owners manual and I tried to google it. But, no luck. Thanks in advance!

See page 449 in the above link for a larger picture.

Swap the left and right relays and see what happens. If you have a Canadian Maxima, the daylight running module could also be the problem.
