How to permanently remove moisture from the rear lights

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Tail light

We know how annoying it is, after a period of heavy rain, to find the rear lights holding moisture inside. We then remove the optical group from its housing, disconnect the electrical plug and remove the bulb inside. We dry the inside of the headlight with a dry cloth and then remove any residual moisture with the hot air from a hairdryer (but it must not be too hot, or it will deform the plastics). When it is well dried, we apply a layer of silicone all around the inner frame of the optical group to seal any holes that may have formed. Opening the sealant cap, we make a slanted cut so that it can come out neatly. We carefully finish and put the optical group back in place.

How to Check the Oil Level on a Jeep Renegade?

To check the oil level on a Jeep Renegade, you need to open the bonnet to access the components inside the engine bay: on the lower left side of the engine block, you will find the dipstick for checking the level. This should be pulled out and thoroughly cleaned with a cloth: once cleaned, reinsert it back into its tube and pull it out immediately after. This way, you can check that the oil mark is between the minimum and maximum levels; finally, you can place the dipstick back in its tube.
