Golf V R32 :: Condensation In One Tail Light
I just notice some condensation in one of my tailights.
There's been some snow and ice lately and I'm wondering if that's what caused it.
Is there anyway I can get rid of it? Is it from the water getting through the gaskets/seals?

So I've been using the rear window spray a lot since it's been snowing and the salty water/snow/air has covered the rear window a lot and I've been notice water dripping into the rear when I open the hatch but previously thought it was just some snow that melted in/around the hatch area and was dripping. Today I noticed both tail lights that are on the hatch have condensation in them. When I popped the plastic covering on the hatch that you use to replace the bulbs, I noticed there was the blue spray fluid. So I removed the two tail light and I can't seem to figure out how to get the bit of water out of the white and red parts. Do the lens come off any way? I now realize the leaky rear spray thing is a common issue and just ordered the two stupid 50 cent pieces that costs 31 with shipping from ECS

We just bought a new Prius II (2013) 6 days ago and had rain. We noticed condensation in both the front headlight and back tail light. This is under the plastic covering. This doesn't seem right. We searched and found a class action suit for the previous generation prius.

I have water in my Jetta's tail lights and its really annoying. I just had them both out on the weekend and checked out the foam gaskets and they were both fine but i replaced them with an older pair I had that looked in even better shape but basically the same condition...
Rained pretty hard last night and now there is like more water in them then before... I made sure I tightened them down good because they were not that tight when I originally took them off.
There is water condensation in my spare tire well and making my carpet wet and starting to fog up my rear windows..
Lexus RX 2010-15 :: 2013 - Condensation In Tail Lights?
At 4800 miles I noticed condensation, moisture, or water in my tail lights assembly , I took it in for my first check up, provided pictures, the engineers at lexus said this was normal. I said mosture causes corrosion, may cause a short becauce water is a conductive element, and when it dries it will leave contaminates on the inside of the lights, they said all cars have this issue. I explained the my last 8 cars did not have this issue and I have put aftermarket headlights and tail lights on 2 my cars and they did not have this issue. Well the coversation didn't go well, I said if its so common how come its not in the manual, or a disclaimer on the car, what if I told buyers on your lot this was a common issue. I closed with letting them know it was time to let this be known. I also said just like the headlight issue's they will have to do something. The next day they called me and said they would change out the lights this one time. I am sure this not the last time this issue will be seen, the engineering at lexus is just too proud and hate to admit when they have a bad designed until law suits or deaths happen.

I have a 2000 grand prix. The headlight s & tailights are constantly full of condensation. How can I remove the condensation & prevent it from reoccurring?

View 11 RepliesGolf VI R :: Condensation In Center / Third Brake Light
My Golf R has had this issue (I didn't see much from searching). I have a significant amount of condensation in my third brake light so I called the service department at my local VW dealer and basically was told that this is normal and they won't replace under warranty. They claim the light is vented which allows for moisture to build up. This seems like a bit of a design flaw though and would eventually cause some or all of the LEDs to burn out in the light.

I installed LED R tail lights from ECS and now when I put the car in reverse with the lights on the right inner tail light goes out. It's not the light because I already swapped it for another one and it did the same thing. I do have a RVC and the trigger wire is hooked up to this light but the stock lights work fine and I still have the issue when I unhook the RVC.
View 12 RepliesGolf IV R32 :: Right Tail Light Will Not Work
Picked up the r32 last July and the car has been running great. No problems and still a blast to drive. My right tail light, however, will not work when I put my lights on. The signal works, brakes work, the flashing lights when I lock the car are fine, but my right signal tail light stays out. Thought it just might be the bulb at first, switched it but it didn't make a difference.
Went to the dealer for an oil change and mentioned the problem saying maybe I shorted a fuse or something and I can just replace it. He told me it was a little deeper than than that and need to check it out first.

Golf V R32 :: How To Replace Tail Light Bulbs
Also looked through our manuals and saw jack. Looked at the inside of the rear hatch and saw no easy way of replacing the rear tail light bulbs. I'm guessing that i would have to take out the plastic and/or carpet to get to it?

View 2 RepliesGolf/GTI VII :: Socket Available For Light - Missing Tail Lights?
I am in the middle of doing some investigative work for autokey and upon taking apart the Hatch Door rear tail light assembly, I noticed a spot where a bulb should go is empty (on both the driver and passenger sides, same spot).
Now, I am 99% sure these lights are SUPPOSED to be omitted, as the spot where a bulb would protrude into the actual tail light assembly outlined above has a metallic dome over it to keep it sealed. Just wondering why there would even be a socket available for a light? Is it part of a European package we don't get in the States?
Golf IV R32 :: Electrical Malfunction After Replacing Tail Light?

View 5 RepliesGolf/GTI VI :: 2011 - Driver Side Tail Light On The Trunk Is Out
I have a 2011 Jetta TDI and the drivers side tail light on the trunk is out. I opened the trunk and popped the cover off the rear of the tail light and it seems the connector is loose. I tried for about 10 or so minutes to get it back into place but I couldn't. I don't know if the connector is broken or if my hands are just too large to fit into the area. I plan on taking it back to the dealership to get them to fix it. I just picked up the car. Is this a sign of wiring issues or just someone at the factory jamming a connector into a hole so they could move on a couple of seconds faster?

2004 VR6
my right rear tail light is not working. I tested the tray on the left side and the brake light works, so the problem must be from the right connector or right wiring back somewhere.
any tips on how to find the problem from here?
