Front Fog Lamp Adjustment

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2006 Mercury Mariner and 2006 Ford Escape. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
    NOTE: Horizontal aim is not required for this vehicle and is not adjustable. Consult your state vehicle inspection center for recommended tolerance ranges for visual aiming.
  1. Before starting the fog lamp assembly adjustment:
    • check the tire inflation.
    • make sure there are no other loads in the vehicle other than a half tank of fuel.
    • make sure the vehicle is on level ground.
    • make sure the fog lamps and headlamps are clean.
    • make sure the headlamps are operating and are correctly aimed.
    2. NOTE: The vertical wall screen must be a minimum of 2.4-m (8-ft) wide.
