On my '05, you do pull out the headlight switch and the foglights come
on when the headlights are on. Don't know if the '02 is the same, but
probably is.

Now, have you checked things such as fuses or even something as simple as if
your fog lights have bulbs installed?

Of course not. You have to turn off your caps lock, first.

To operate the fog lights, turn on your headlights and then
pull out the knob. They will only operate with the head
lights are on low beam.
The fog lights are intended for use in fog. Please keep this
in mind. Some of your fellow road users (like me) get pissed
at SUV drivers who use fog lights as weapons of
intimidation. And before you tell me how much they help you
see, don't waste your time. I've owned 1 Explorer, 2
Expedition, and a Mustang with fog lights. From time to
time, I have turned them on. I have found them useful once -
when trying to follow the edge of the road at low speed in a
snow storm. In that case, the fog lights did a reasonable
job of adding light to the area immediately to the front and
sides of the vehicle. At a low speed this was useful for
following the edge of the road. At normal highway speeds,
anything in this area would already be to close to respond
to. When driving in town, all the fog lights do is annoy
other drivers. I did have one person tell me that they used
their fog light when parking to help illuminate the parking
space as they turned in. This seemed reasonable (maybe as
good as the old "turning lights"). Otherwise I write off all
the people who ride around with fog lights ablaze as
inconsiderate jerks.
Finally, typing in all caps is considered rude. But then so
is top posting. Oh well, I guess we can survive this top
post.

I think you mean when the low beams (or parking lights on
some models) are selected. There is absolutely no reason to
run "fog" lights with the high beams.

whenever I engage the high beams. Like most of you I rarely use the
fog lights and get tired of people blinding me with theirs.

guess I never really thought about others being irritated by them. I
have been the lead car in front of my own vehicle and they seem
directed downward that they really aren't bright. I leave them on
mainly driving in the city because I have cars that pull out in front
of me from parking lots or side roads and I would rather make sure
that they see me (kinda like the daytime running lights theory - which
I don't really buy into personally).
Second question: what is "top posting"?
Happy Holidays!

stopping it anytime soon. I get to see the reply right away and if I need
educating, I can scroll down. Others frown on the practice, preferring to
scroll through multiple kb of drivel to find "Me too" bottom posted - after
several pages of unsnipped crap.
As for the fog lights..... we all assume that others live in identical
bodies to ours. I'm an old guy.... I wear sunglasses a lot.. even at night
depending on conditions and traffic. I can't hear worth shit because my
chosen profession has delivered a really nifty condition called tinnitus....
some nights, it's so bad I'm surprised Mrs mechanic can't hear it. Old age
and, perhaps, continuous exposure to off-beat chemicals, has left my
eyesight less than great. We have a lot of motorists that try to impress us
all because they have factory foglights..... These things shine in an old
guys peepers bad enough to set up a tragedy. If someone is approaching you
and finds your fog lights offensive, they will flash their high beams at
you. You, forgetting the fog lights, will flash your high beams back.
Nothing gained .... however, the fog light guy will be branded a dick (
rightfully so). As responsible adults, we must be conscious of the effects
that our actions have on others.
Wouldn't it be nifty if the guy coming at you has poor vision, a dirty
windshield and can't see squat because you are using your lamps in a manner
other than what was intended (they are called "fog" lamps).... and runs
smack into you.
Driving down the road is NOT all about me.... it IS all about US. Safe
motoring is all about teamwork amongst people that will never, ever meet
each other. "loose cannons" that disregard common courtesy set us up for a
real bad night.
Turn off the foglights and have a safe and merry Xmas

Am I the only one to see the contradiction, here?

then fry or bake.
Set aside to drain on paper towels.
Make a roux with butter, oil and flour,
brown vegetables in the roux, then add chicken stock and
allow to simmer for 20 minutes.
Add the patties or stuffed heads, and some loose crawfish,
lobster, long piglet, or what have you.
Cook on low for 15 minutes, then allow it to set for at least
15 minutes more.
Serve over steamed rice; this dish is very impressive!
Stuffed Cabbage Rolls
Babies really can be found under a cabbage leaf -
or one can arrange for ground beef to be found there instead.
8 large cabbage leaves
1 lb. lean ground newborn human filets, or ground chuck
Onions
peppers
celery
garlic
soy sauce
salt pepper, etc
Olive oil
breadcrumbs
Tomato Gravy (see index)
Boil the cabbage leaves for 2 minutes to soften.
In skillet, brown the meat in a little olive oil,
then add onions, peppers, and celery (all chopped finely)
and season well.
Place in a large bowl and cool.
Add seasoned breadcrumbs and a little of the

enough to make the mixture pliable.
Divide the stuffing among the cabbage leaves then roll.
Place seam down in a baking pan.
Ladle tomato gravy on top,
and bake at 325° for 30 - 45 minutes.
Umbilical Cordon Bleu
Nothing is so beautiful as the bond between mother and child,
so why not consume it?
Children or chicken breasts will work wonderfully also.
4 whole umbilical chords (or baby breasts, or chicken breasts)
4 thin slices of smoked ham, and Gruyere cheese
Flour
eggwash (milk and eggs)
seasoned bread crumbs
1 onion
minced
salt
pepper
butter
olive oil
Pound the breasts flat (parboil first if using umbilical
cords so they won?t be tough).
Place a slice of ham and cheese on each, along with some minced onion
then fold in half, trimming neatly.
Dredge in flour, eggwash, then seasoned breadcrumbs;
allow to sit for a few minutes.
Sauté in butter and olive oil until golden brown,
about 6 minutes on each side.
Shish Kababes
As old as the hills, this technique has employed seafood, beef, pork, lamb,
poultry, and vegetables; just about anything can be grilled, and young humans
are no exception!
High quality marinade (Teriyaki and garlic perhaps)
1 inch cubes of tender meat, preferably from the nursery
Onions
bell peppers
Wooden or metal skewers
Marinate the meat overnight.
Get the grill good and hot while placing meat, vegetables, and
fruit such as pineapples or cherries on the skewers.
Don?t be afraid to use a variety of meats.
Grill to medium rare,
serve with garlic cous-cous and sautéed asparagus.
Coffee and sherbet for desert then walnuts, cheese, and port.

died-in-the-wool, certified brain fart..... Much better to blind someone
since we can be sure that the other motorists SAW us at least for a split
second. That way it makes it much harder for them to aim at us with any
accuracy. Besides, it's much better to have lights on than to ummmm,
errrrr...... have lights on, I guess.
I don't understand the reluctance some have to have DRLs or the downright
dislike that some have of them. They are an innocuous device, relatively
trouble free and are proven to reduce daytime MVAs (
