foglights ko pinasukan ng tubig

[gudboy]

paano patutuyuin yun?
ok lang ba gamitin kahit may tubig saloob.?
konti lang naman tubig. mga 1/4 ng foiglight...
ano pwede gawin?

help pls

[ssaloon]

tanggalin mo yung stopper sa lilkod ng assembly tapos patuyuin mo. pag tuyo na, chaka mo ibalik yung stopper para makalabas yung moisture.

[tikb0y]

pag di mo inalis yung tubig, papangit yung lens, magiging dull... hihina yung ilaw mo.

[pajerokid]

if you have an air compressor, pwede mo siya bombahan.

pwede mo rin kalasin yung foglight assy.

worse if the water inside contacts the bulb, poof!! tiklab ang bombilya mo. heheh

hmmm which reminds me....ive seen few cars carrying puddles of water in their taillight and signal light housings...they look OEM to me...sealant failure? or too much exposure to pressurized water...(car wash)

[roydok]

Drain the water ASAP as described above. Leaving it will dull the lens and the may form rust on the metal reflectors. Also molds may grow in it causing further discoloration and dulling.

Bili ka ng GoldFish lagay mo sa loob hehehehe Joke lang!!!

Buksan mo nalang baka pag mulan pa ng short circuit yan.. lalo ka mag kaka problema

Alisin mo yung foglamps to drain them. Use compressed air or basahan tapos laruin mo using a screwdriver. I think chieffy can do this in his station.

If you don't correct the situation asap, magco-corrode yung reflector sa loob ng housing.

Don't forget to reinstall the rear rubber grommet properly.

benchph1,

Usually improper reassembly (after a collision or bulb replacement) ang cause ng aquarium taillamps. hehehe.

usually sealant failure due to old age or improper installation

thanks! mmm lahat ba ng foiglights may stopper sa likod?
kaya nag dadalawang isip ako tanggalin kasi hirap itutok ulit

As an added precaution, try running a bead of silicone surrounding the areas which get disassembled when accessing the bulb.

HTH! :bald:

nagcomment pa naman ako dito how to deal with moisture trapped in his car's foglights..........kaninang gabi naka-park ako ng naka-bukas foglamps. napansin ko mahamog yung lens nung tiningnan ko mabuti me tubig sa loob!! grrr.......bwisit talagang baha yan.:mad:

how abt kung sa headlight nagkaroon ng konting moisture?

[OTEP]

Sa headlights usually, mali ang pagkakalapat ng rear grommet kaya ganun. Unless may physical separation ng lens mula sa housing, most of the time nasa grommet ang problema.

Headlamps today are not sealed. May openings din sila sa grommet (usually at the bottom). This avoids, condensation sa loob ng lens.

pinapintura kasi ang front bumper and hood nung car, pag balik sa amin may moisture na ang isang headlight pati parklight, (civic) bad trip talaga dyan sa High Quality auto repair shop sa may Paco. Nung unang gawa pagbalik sa amin di na rubbing ng mabuti ang hood kaya kulay flat color, ngayon ok na headlight naman problema. ewan ko ba kung bakit pati headlight nagkaganoon eh hood and bumper and pinagawa.

Paano kaya alisin itong moisture sa headlight??

Binilad ko lang sa araw yung Besta dati, with the bulb and grommet off.
