HEADLAMPS – TROUBLESHOOTING
HEADLAMPS – FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why is there condensation in the headlamps? 
Headlamps have vents to accommodate normal changes in air pressure. Condensation can be a natural by-product of this design. When moist air enters the lamp assembly through the vents, there is a possibility that condensation can occur when the temperature is cold. When normal condensation occurs, a fine mist can form on the interior of the lens. The fine mist eventually clears and exits through the vents during normal operation.

• How much condensation is acceptable?
  The presence of a fine mist, for example, no streaks, drip marks or large droplets. A fine mist covers less than 50% of the lens.
• How long may it take for the acceptable condensation to be cleared?
  Clearing time may take as long as 48 hours under dry weather conditions.
• How much condensation is unacceptable?
  A water puddle inside the lamp. Streaks, drip marks or large droplets present on the interior of the lens.
• What should I do if unacceptable condensation is present?
  Have your vehicle checked as soon as possible.
• Why do my headlamps turn off when I have them switched on when I switch my vehicle off?
  The battery saver turns the headlamps off after a short period of time after you switch your vehicle off.
