Condensation in Fog Light

[bowhunter53]

I've got condensation in my passenger side fog light and the bulb is blown. Is it worth trying to fix, or should I just buy another off Ebay?

Cent tell if its worth fixing if we don't have pictures. You might be able to bake and then clean the fogs but I don't know

I will try and get it out tonight to see if there are any clear signs of where the seal failure occured. I can get one on ebay (OEM used) for about 100 bucks. I've read posts on guys doing the baking and re sealing of headlights and just not sure if I have the time to commit to that process.

I had the same problem. I just popped the blub out and let it air out. You can use a hair dryer also to speed up the process. The moisture got in through the bulb connection on the back of the housing. It looked like the "O" ring that was suppose to keep water out failed. I just cleaned up the connection and put on some rubber moisturizer and its all good now. Good luck!

Thank Ryan! I will try that this weekend, I hope it works.

I think I may have a complete set of fog lamps/turn signal housings (and lights probably as well) laying around the shop some where if you need them.
