Orange is the lamp control relay. It isn't really a relay. It checks the flow of current through the headlights and flashes an alarm on the Pictogram if a bulb is burned out. In theory anyway. The orange relay is prone to solder failure where the 8 pins are soldered to the circuit board, and this is especially true of the 3 pins associated with the high beam.
The 3 pins are identified and assigned as follows:
56a feeds both 56aR and 56aL (High Beam).
Use a multimeter to check resistance as follows:
There should be no resistance between 56a and 56aR (high beam right side)
There should be no resistance between 56a and 56aL (high beam left side)
You're right, the stalk switch usually isn't the problem. The red relay should be good since you installed a new one last year.
