I appreciate how professional your videos are, and it’s certainly nice not
to have to fight seasickness from a shaky camera!
Good Job !!! We Like it ! Thank You !
Nice simple and straight forward. Now it’s time to restore your headlights
:)
thanks chris for another info…God bless your helping hands..
Haha! I watched this video for a laugh a couple weeks ago, and thought
yeah, that’s a good video, I like his approach…. Yesterday I waxed my
truck, and I see one of my rear lights is full of water, d%$#it….. So,
suddenly I’m paying a LOT more attention! Thank you Chris.
Wow this video is so detailed I love it thanks for the video God bless you!
Honestly, why just seal the bottom? Why not just do the entire assembly to
prevent any moisture issues in the future?
Anybody know if you can remove condensation with the housing still on the
vehicle?
My bolts are rusted and can’t be removed. I have a hair dryer and vacuum.
It won’t be another 4-5 months until I see warmer weather.
Good job, Chris. I really liked your heat gun set up with the box. I’m sure
that you kept a lot of people from ruining their headlight assemblies by
showing us your drying method. Your camera work is really good and it’s not
as easy as some think. Thanks.
Good vid, a better sealer to use would be RTV, and is more weather
resistant.
RTV means room temperature vulcanizing.
I touched the lightbulb…
I have a BMW e39 with this issue in one light and will be giving this a try
soon. My headlights are more tricky to remove unfortunately!
Hence I may try and just put a couple of drain holes in the light if I can,
I can always seal the holes up if that doesn’t work and seal around the
light too.
Wow you’re awesome 🙂 I know you can’t be single haha your voice is so
soothing.. And you take pride in your work.. Cheers man
One of the most professional videos ive seen on you tube.Excellent
wont the cardboard box catch fire….
Very nice video, fortunately for my Volvo the lens is held onto the
assembly by clips so can be easily removed so didn’t even need a heat gun
to dry out the inside just needed to replace the rubber seal and job done
why don’t they make headlights like this anymore..
this guy deserve donation for teaching noobes specially for people that
didn’t go for mechanic
Very nicely done video. Easy to understand. Fixed my problem quickly. I’m
not the most handy repair wise. So I appreciate videos that are made for
guys like me!
This is a nice job , but what I did was make an orifice at the bottom the
headlight and that it , the light never get condensation again , thank .
You can touch the light bulb, these are halogen bulbs, which won’t
prematurely fail if you touch them. However, LED and HID bulbs will fail
prematurely if you touch them.
Good video! Yours is a 2001 right? I have a 2001 ranger edge and while the
lens look the same the latches are not, mine just pull up on 2 latches
kinda like yours but they are long and right at the top then it just slides
out. I just put in new lens I was lazy and didnt wanna fix my passenger
side lol but now I need to adjust them bad!
chris can you give me a call i got a question about this 2001 ford
expedition email me and ill email you my number its to hard to try to
explane it by typing my email addy is wmautoservice@yahoo.com
No problem bro whenever you can thanks for replying so quick.
Does filling it with water yellow the lens’s?
Thanks for the info.. Got work to do this weekend.
Is there anyway to clean the inside of the headlight without tearing apart
the lens? On my 94 Ranger my headlights are a bit foggy on the inside. I
cleaned the outside the best I could but most of the corrosion and stuff is
on the inside. Or is this similar to that just putting water through the
hole in the back of the assembly?
Do you have to disconnect the battery when unplugging the headlight bulbs
from the harness?
My left headlight has had so much moisture over the years and it has
annoyed me. Great video. Going to try it.
Excellent! My headlights do have water in them. This I will def try.
Get that grass cut!!!!
Good job, very well demonstrated. I may have the same problem with my 19
yr old vehicle and now I know I may be able to fix it myself instead of
having to replace the $140/ea headlight units, Thanks…
soooo you put the grease on the light bulb?
My Car AC get less cooling when it not running or I m at light.I have Honda
CR-V EX-L 2009 model.Plz advice .Thanks.
very helpful looks easy thanks
This is a very helpful video. Thank You
Smashing job and didnt cost an arm and a leg to fix :-))
I would imagine if you did touch the bulb you could wash it with meths or
the cleaner isopropic version, ive never seen anyone have a lightbulb
suffer early death due to hotspots forming on the dirty glass.
Perhaps a test is needed ha ha, bulb death, the facts lol.
Another excellent video by ChrisFix…the best DIY cannel on youtube. I
actually recommend your channel to my friends, one already subscribed. Keep
up the awesome work man.
How do I get rid of the yellowing inside the light
No offence chris but is it me or are you always having problems with your
truck
Genial
