Got a vehicle that has condesation build up in the headlamp assembly. Apparently a cover on the back side had come loose and been that way for months. The other day I noticed 1 1/2 inches of water standing in the unit. The only way to get it out was to drill a small hole in the back bottom area and let it drain out. I planned to plug it with some silicone, but it now has a lot of condensation inside.

What's the best way to dry this out without damaging anything?

 

Replace it for cheap. Prob solved, not band aided.

 

Air circulation is more important than heat. I take it this is the type where the bulb twists in. just leaving the bulb out it will dry eventually. I suppose you could feed a tube in there? Tape one end near the fan or use a hair dryer. Get an 02 sensor, then screw a new jeep onto it. That would take care or it!

 

Now that you have drilled a hole in it, the condensation will eventually go away. Especially if you use the headlight.

But if you bury the headlight in deep water, it will probably fill up again.
