Liiiam 2 Report post Posted June 6, 2023 My headlights started to get condensation a few months ago. But, they'd always clear up during the day and I read online that they were mad to vent? recently they've begun to stay fogged up/condensated and I've been hit with the "Headlight vertical aim control failure" and just a few minutes ago for the first time "Dipped right beam failure". As you can see in the picture one is fine and one is bad, they were both bad until I had some work done and they had to remove the light and put it back in, but again it's starting to get more condensation build up. Anyone ever have a similar issue that they were able to solve? I got two quotes for new headlights and it was about half the cost of the car so I'm hoping not to go down that route.

Choo 16 Report post Posted June 7, 2023 Find a workshop that will remove the head light and dry them out and then seal the unit. I brought my car to Bellars several months ago to get rid of condensation for my front headlights. Thankfully, I didn't wait too long and suffered no electrical faults. However, one rear headlight now has that problem too 😂😭 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought I had the halogen as those were the lamps that 'fit my vehicle' when putting in the info on supercheap/repco.. come to find it has these headlamps but also has what I think is the vertical aim controller which is only for halogens?? maaan I'm getting more and more confused lol.
