Mot And Headlights

[fruitsalad]

The headlights on my car seem to have some condensation on the insides is this an mot failure?

• Is the headlamp free of condensation?
If the beam pattern is blurred and the examiner cannot determine
a distinctive cut off point, this is a reason for failure. Try leaving
the headlamps on for a short time to ‘burn off’ the condensation.

Fruit, on some cars the Glass on the headlight can be removed to clean, the headlight seal is either perished or damaged, if the car is due for test, just before you go get your hair drier out & heat the Glass, it will dry up, but will not solve the problem.
