I have taken it off and cannot find any visible cracks. What might be causing this and how can I fix it? 01 Pontiac Grand Prix. Hammer Time Ultimate Carjunky / Moderator Mar 19, 2010, 6:09 PM Post #2 of 3 (6255 views) Re: Water in Tail Light Sign In The assembly has to have a crack or bad seal somewhere. there really isn't any other way for it to get in. A new light is the only way to fix it right but many times we just drill a very small hole (1/16") at the lowermost point of the lens for it to continuously drain. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ We offer help in answering questions, clarifying things or giving advice but we are not a substitute for an on-site inspection by a professional. steve01832 Veteran Mar 20, 2010, 3:36 AM Post #3 of 3 (6243 views) Re: Water in Tail Light Sign In Gigirl, one thing to add. When you get it apart, have the socket and wiring inspected for corrosion. Any signs and you should have that fixed with the lens or you will have problems down the road. Water, air, and copper make a bad combination.
