How to Remove Condensation from the Front Headlamp of the BMW 1 Series

Model: BMW Serie 1 MK 2, F20, F21 - Years 2011-2019
Part: Headlight

These simple steps will show you how to remove any condensation that has accumulated inside the front headlamp of the BMW 1 Series. Normally, condensation should not form inside an intact and perfectly functioning lamp; this indicates that there may be small cracks allowing water to enter over time. In this specific case, heat the lens of the headlamp assembly until all the condensation is removed; if the problem occurs frequently, it is advisable to replace the entire front headlamp or the external lens.
