The reason for the fog in the lamp.
If the dust cover of the car lamp is cracked, it is easy to get rain into the headlights and form water mist in the lampshade.Once the headlights are in water, the brightness will be affected, and it may cause the circuit plug to corrode and cause damage to the lamp.At this point, the car owner can turn on the dust cover and turn on the headlights.After 10 minutes of turning on the headlights, the fog begins to disappear and disappear completely within 1 hour.If there is still water mist, we should go to professional after-sales service station to handle.
