This must be contagious. Someone else posted this in the GT s197 section.

im not sure how long you have had the car, and i don't mean to insult you saying this BUT, did you pull the headlight **** out? My wife drive her Ford Edge (which uses a similar headlihgt/fog light ****) for two months thinking it had a problem because she didn't realize you had to pull the **** out to get the fogs to come on. The ring in the stang looks a bit like you just turn the **** and they come on with the lights but you have to pull it out a little to turn them on. If you already know that just pretend like i wasn't here.

Check the fuse.
The relay is easy to test: swap it with the trunk release relay next to it, and make sure trunk release still opens.

Also, the ignition switch needs to be on. The parking lights or headlights need to be on, but the high beams need to be off. I wasn't here either.
