1986-87 MODELS EQUIPPED WITH COMPOSITE HEADLAMPS
Figure 1 - Headlamp Assembly:
A condition may exist where condensation forms on the inside of the composite headlamp lens. This condition is considered normal on a cool lens, however after the headlamps have been on, this moisture should dissipate. The length of time for moisture dissipation may vary due to the heat generated by the headlamps and air flow through the headlamp assembly from vehicle movement. If a condition occurs where condensation remains, the vent tubes should be inspected for kinks or obstructions. It is essential that the vent tubes are in place and routed correctly (without kinks) for effective ventilation. Refer to Figure 1..
