02 sport foglight problem
 
I walked out on the lot today and one of my Jeeps foglights were on.. This
was weird because when I left last night I locked all the Jeeps and there
were no lights on... the keys are not in the vehicle. I jiggled the light
switch and they flickered on & off but then stayed on still so I just
unplugged them... why would there be power to them with no key in the
ignition?

what ever is controlling the relay must be leaking enough juice
to keep the relay energized. Gonna have to see a schematic to know more.

I had the same problem on my jeep. If you play with the wand that
controls the lights, the spots will come on even if you did not pull
out. The lights started to stay on as well, I had to wiggle the wand
to make sure everything was off.
The dealer replace the wand, it was covered.
