There is no headlight relay for 78 Spiders that I'm aware of. That can present a problem because the stalk switch has to carry the full current of the headlights. Some people install a relay as a measure to lessen the load on the stalk switch. Same for installing a relay for the SPICA Cold-Start Solenoid/Starter Solenoid.
Before you start removing the plastic steering column cover. . a few questions:
Since you have low beams, the 12v supply wire (top of fuse #4) must be good.
1. When you go to hi-beams on stalk switch, does the blue dash hi-beam indicator light come on even though the hi-beams themselves don't?
2. If not, with the column light switch stalk in the high beam position, is there power to the top of fuse #7? That wire supplies power to the #7 (left hi-beam and blue dash indicator light) and #8 (right hi-beam).
If there's no power there, then the stalk switch is bad.
Pushing in the stalk switch activates the flash function of the headlights . . but that's low beam, NOT hi-beam.
