David, That has been a notorious problem with SAABs for a long time. The fogs will run with either the parking or headlights on. If you remove the key with the headlights on (with or without the fogs) all lights go off. However if you remove the key with the parking lights on, the stay on, and the fogs too! No warning buzzer bell or anything. I've accdentially kill a battery or two because of that. DAVID KATZ wrote: > Different situation, related problem.
