Default Water and condensation in my factory fog lights

Does anyone else have this problem? How simple is the fix? I dont want to use them, I am afraid I will short something out.

If they have moisture in them then there is a crack in the plastic housing or a seam is not sealed from the manufacturing process. I had the same issue on one of my brake lights. Take it back to the dealer if it is under warranty and they will replace the light housing.

10 Rubi. Nothing in the factory fogs or headlights. There should be no condensation in there.

If you get behind your bumper you can unscrew the lights and take the assembly out. They have a vent hole in them for draining water but its hard for it all to get out. Take them all the way out of the bumper remove the bulbs and blow them out with a airhose and let them air out for a day or so. Ive done this to mine and it worked fine.
