In fact, it can be seen from the structure of the headlight that whether it is a halogen headlight, a hernia headlight or an LED headlight, the interior of the headlight is almost sealed with a sealing strip. This sealing strip is to prevent water from entering the interior of the car headlight. The main measure is that there is a vent hole for the headlight inside the headlight pair, which is used for the ventilation of the headlight, but there is also a piece of treatment similar to drying cotton at the vent hole. It is used to filter the air entering the interior of the headlight.
It can be seen from the structure of the headlights of the two cars above. There are two real reasons for fog inside the headlights. The first point is that the sealing strip is aged or damaged during the disassembly process.
It can be seen from the structure of the headlights of the two cars above. There are two real reasons for fog inside the headlights. The first point is that the sealing strip is aged or damaged during the disassembly process. The second point is that there is a problem with the drying cotton at the vent. Therefore, when you find water mist inside the headlight, you should start from these two aspects. Check the sealing strip behind the headlight and the dry cotton at the vent. If you find that the sealing is not tight, you can use sealant to deal with it. Car owners must also be careful not to damage the sealing strips when replacing the bulbs themselves. As for drying the headlights with a hair dryer after fogging occurs, it will not solve the root problem. Also, do not directly bake the headlights at high temperature to achieve internal fogging of the headlights. Doing so will most likely damage the headlight housing. Fog generated inside the headlights is generally more common in cars with higher mileage. As for someone asking what to do if this kind of problem occurs in a new car. It is recommended that new car owners should apply for a claim if this phenomenon occurs within the warranty period of the car. This is a quality issue.
