Foggy Foglight

[Johnny O]

One of my fog lights has moisture inside. It still works fine. Any tips for getting rid of it? I've been turning them on frequently when I drive to maybe heat it up and burn it off and it's gotten better. I'm thinking maybe take the socket and bulb out, tape it up for protection, and let it air out for a while. Any other ideas?

The bulb removed will allow the humidity to escape, but it will probably come back if the cause isn't addressed.



I had a headlight assembly that leaked. I removed the lens, cleaned it and the housing and put a thin bead of silicon between them. Been fine for 10+ years.

If plastic you can drill a super small hole in the bottom to allow future water to drain.

Thanks, I'll try that.
