The lights are off and drying in the house.
Condensation.   The internals. All looked in good condition no corrosion or anything.  Now in the sun waiting for the water particles to bugger off so I can rebuild.

I need to see if I can get my rear boot lights off to dry those, my outer lights are both fine. I wonder if a hair dryer will help dry them out without removal.

Its not a hard job really.
Just a bit fiddly getting the LEDs out but its worth it. Take off during the day, dry over night and refit the next day. I got 4 silicone jel packs to put in but I forgot to do it at the time of putting them back together. I'll keep an eye on them, if they start to go again I'll restrip, dry and fit the packs in.

Silicone gel packs
The silicone gel packs you guys are alluding to; are these the type you get in shoe boxes when you buy a new pair and in other clothing items to keep stuff fresh?
