The only 'relay' for the low beam headlights is the bulb failure relay which can go bad.

Test for voltage at the input side of the low beam fuses (19 & 20). If you don't have voltage there, the bulb failure relay is bad. You can pry the cover off and attempt to re-solder it or get a used one.

Same place as in your other post: Back row left in the relay board under the radio. It is big, red and round.
