Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Somehow I got moisture in my headlights. I believe it happened after driving through some water during a heavy rainstorm. How can I get rid of the moisture? These are litronics. I have searched and found mention of vents but cannot find anything other than adjustment holes on the inside of the car. Are there vents on the inside of the fender wells?

POST 2Original post

Run with the lights on to heat them and drive out the moisture. Or pull the lights remove the bulbs and put them in the oven face down on a couple of towels @ ~160F for a few hours. Don't touch any of the bulbs with bare fingers, use gloves.

POST 3Original post

A few hot/cold cycles should "pump" the moisture out of the headlight assembly.

This is a source reference. Confirm exact model applicability in the original material.
