Hight Beam Indicator Light not working

Hi all, 1989 1.8 GL owner here. Everything works on the car except the high beam indicator light. My friendly MOT tester said it's "erratic" and gave me a wink, but I know it's non functional. Like so many Mk2's, the car does have a headlight wiring relay kit installed. Would this be the cause of my problem? I reckon there has been some messing about done with the lighting loom anyhow, not just out at the headlights. It has a few "quirks".
The wiring diagrams suggest the high beam indicator light is powered from fuse 9, so will be a blue & white wire going to the instruments.
I don't have MFA, just a digital clock.
My instrument illumination is shockingly bad, so the instruments probably need to come out at some stage.
All other warning LEDs work, just not the headlight one.

All help appreciated.
