The Windstar is a funny and often problematic minivan. Great design and comfort features but at the end of the day its a problem. Some of the configurations change from model to model. The fog lamps are supposed to turn off when your high beams are on but on the LX and Sport models they will not.

Some Windstar also have the switch built in the headlight switch by pulling the knob in or out will others are mounted on the turn switch by pushing forward (which is your high beams). It is also possible that your switch for your high beams is faulting and might have to be replaced.

If the fog lamps are on while driving and off while parked then I wouldn't worry to much about it as it won't drain your battery but if they stay on when your lights are off there are 2 solutions (quick fixes) 1. take the bulbs out or 2. run a toggle switch to shut them on or off manually or simply take it Ford and have it fixed. I say Ford and not the local garage because you are getting into the electronics and electrical.

To turn on the lights in a Ford Windstar, locate the headlight switch on the left side of the dashboard.
