Have you fixed your condensation problem yet? I have baked and cleared my fair share of headlights over here for people, just rebake it, pry it apart again and add another bead of plastic silicone along the crevices. That should fix it.

It gets annoying, one of mines is condensating right now, but thats because I have a crack in my glass headlights. I need to buy some glass sealer in order to seal it up again. Just havent had time.

Other than that, nice car! I love aspen white.

ASG charge $1200 for the service and an extra $180 if you chose to change the water pump. Had mine done there a few months ago, very happy with their work.

So ive finally "re-de-oranged" my headlights and poured out a cup of water out of them, sealed them up properly this time and they are water free.

But when i reconnected them up and turned them on,
1. indicator and park light wont turn on
2. when using the right indicator it flashes really quickly on the dash and the rear one does too (on the same side as where i removed the indicator)

So what i am asking, is this a fuse that's blown due to the amount of water that was in there, or is it more likely that the globe/s has blown.

Cheers

The fast flashing is caused by the missing indicator.

Check the fuses in the fusebox and if they look ok, replace the globes... easy peasy!

Little tip for getting rid of the leftover condensation if you have re-sealed the light propely, get one of those 'do not eat' packets from new shoes or whatever, chuck a bit of string on the end & put it in the headlight (with string hanging out obviously) put the globe back in, leave it for a while (not using car) then fish back out.
