"Last night I discovered my low beams were not functioning. Fortunately, the brights got me home. . .
I have 12V leaving the relay on 87b, where does the line go from there on its way to the lamps?"
My 1st guess would be the bulb failure relay, if the low beams worked before you swapped it out to fix the CC problem.
I have no 940 hands-on time with the headlight circuit, but here's what the diagrams show:
From Headlight relay 87b, the Yellow wire goes to Hi/Lo Switch 56 (in turn signal unit). For Low beam operation (via internal contacts) voltage "should" exit Hi/Lo Switch terminal 56b on a Yellow-White wire.
The Y-W wire then goes to Headlight Switch terminal (5) merely as a junction, and on to Bulb Failure Relay terminal 56b/6. The voltage "should" leave the the BFR from two terminals:
• 56BL/2 has a Green wire leading to Fuse 19 (upper terminal). If the fuse is good, another Green wire goes from Fuse 19 (lower) to the left side Low Beam connector terminal.
• 56BR/7, GN-W wire to fuse 20, then GN-W to the right side Low Beam connector.
The 700/900 BFR location doesn't lend itself to back-probing the socket, but you can test for 12V leaving Hi-Lo Switch terminal 56 in the turn signal unit assembly, and farther on (if necessary) at the upper fuse contacts for 19 and 20 (pull fuses first).
