Nader Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 blow compressed air into it or take it off and leave it in the sun. Then just make sure to put the bulb tightly into the light. If it happens again I would suggest trying to reseal it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazykn Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 I thought the problem was because of too tight of a seal. Apparently I had this exact problem with aftermarket corners and sidemarkers. They were sealed so well that they couldn't vent out the damp air or any the moisture (condensation) developing because of the cold temps. I probably don't make any sense, but thats what I remember hearing and seeing... I have a busted S70 corner laying around, let me see what I can find out...EDIT: The S70 factory corner does have a vent hole, right above where the bulb socket goes. This probably applies to the factory 850 corner as well... let me go find my busted 850 corner...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B00STWAG1N Posted April 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 i fixed it, i think.i just went in there with a paper towel on a wire clothes hanger, dry everything out. then shot a hairdry in the hole for the remainder of the moisture. then put a small bead of clear silicon around the fixture, and where the bulb goes, replaced the bulb and scrwed it in real tight making sure the silicon held. if i still get moisture in there, well, ill jus have to live with it.

MyCarIsRed Posted April 14, 2008 Report Share Posted April 14, 2008 They may be fogging because the drain holes are clogged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stm1up Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 They may be fogging because the drain holes are clogged.Drill an 1/8" hole in the side that faces the HL and it won't fog up again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
