Water in headlight pods

[henderjp]

I’m having a problem with accumulating water in BOTH headlight pods on our 2001 Bounder. A while after we purchased this MH last fall, I saw that both headlights were not burning, so I pulled the lights and replaced them. At that time I saw condensation on the inside of the pods, and water standing in the bottom. I suctioned it out, made a small hose to connect to a hair dryer and dried them both. Didn’t drive the MH in the rain last year, stored it outside over the winter, this spring I now have approx. 1” water on one side and condensation in the other. I can’t see a simple way of removing the pods to inspect for cracks, etc.
Can anyone shed some light on this ?

Thanks

My fathers 2002 mini van had same issue, I dilled two small holes at both the top and bottom of the headlights. No more water build up or condensation on front of lens.

it is usually caused by the rubber seal on the light plug-in socket.

I don't know about the head light pods but my scare lights have a water weep hole in the lens. I had one fill up on me and then I noticed it was installed wrong. Moved the weep hole to the bottom and all is fine now.

If you don't have one perhaps you can carefully drill one at the bottom...

Have had similar issues on other vehicles. My fix was to drill drain holes at the lowest points.
