Hi guys I've got moisture in my front driver side headlight and in one of the rear brake lights does anyone have any tips or trick on to how to resolve this and would this cause any problem (electrically) ?

Thanks
 
Could try sticking a blanket over and leave the lights on till it's dry maybe?
cheers
 
Remove bulb and put a hairdryer on the lens.
Might come back if the seal has failed.
 
Both happened after it went in to the body's hop with bumper repairs could that be a reason i just found a blog where you can use the suction power of the vacuum :D Might give that a try too
 
They often do it if the car has been power washed. Might take a couple of attempts if really bad.
 
I had a Peugeot boxer 2006 from new. After 2 years the headlight went all foggy and had little lines spread all over the inside. The dealer replaced both lamps under warranty. When i asked what happened they shrugged and when i asked what to do if it happened again they said replace them. Only real cure so far then is replace ??? Really ? To stop a bit of moisture. My left light has moisture now. Has to be seals around the outside. I always thought the 140w bulbs should dry any moisture in there.
 
Go for a long drive with the headlights on, if that fails take the rear cap off and blast it with a hair dryer.
