Between the lack of things to do with COVID and craziness around Christmas, my truck has been sitting for about 2 months. I took it for a 20-mile drive last night just to run it for a while. I was surpirsed that the Isspro gauges seem kind of fogged over.
I took some pictures today in daylight - the upper two are more impacted, but you can see the boost gauge is fogged around the outer edge. Any thoughts on what would cause this or how to fix it? With time and use (with the backlight ON), will the lenses clear themselves?
I too have ISSPRO EV2 gauges on the pillar and I too have seen them fog up a couple of times in the past.
My truck sits under a car port style roof at the treeline of our property for 2-4 months per year. This is during the off season for camping during the winter months. We live in GA and it can be quite humid at times.
The truck sits in the shade under cover and the 100' tall pine trees block any chance for sun to get to it.
I started using a large Damp-rid bucket during the winter months while the truck has been sitting. Since then, I have had no problems with the gauges fogging up.
As for them going back to clear, a drive on a sunny day did the trick for my couple of incidents this happened.
The link below is to a post I created not too long ago where I put a new bucket in the truck, which is annual or every other year based on the absorption material.
How long have you had your gauges? You should have noticed this in the past if you have had them very long.
Your picture shows moist outside, so... there is moisture inside (dew/frost/etc).
Your lower gauge looks to be more cleared up than the upper one.....Hot air blowing out of the vents??
The will (should) all clear up when the air is dried out.
I have had the gauges about 4-5 years. It is possible that they have had slight condensation previously, but not to the extent that I observed yesterday. I'm in the Seattle area and it has been raining for a significant portion of the past week, so I'm hoping it is not a condition that occurs too regularly going forward. The bottom guage was definitely better - and was from the beginning. I can't say for sure that was the result of having rhe vents blowing on it.
It sounds like this is not unheard of and will, hopefully, clear itself up. I'll try to post back if/when that happens.
I had the same issue with mine with them getting hazy inside. I contacted Isspro and they explained that they had issues with a certain batch not sealing correctly if I can remember correctly. Anyway, I sent them back and they corrected the issue..no charge. Give it a try.
The three isspro's I have on the pillar all fog during high humidity. The other three on the dash don't. Running the A/C for an extended period of time will clear up the "haze".
Again, thanks for the feedback. To the extent that there has previously been fogging/hazing, it has not been a problem for long (if at all). I am guessing that the very wet weather we've had here for the last week or two has led to this isolated incident. As long as running the AC for a while or a nice sunny day solves the problem, I can live with it.
One of the reasons I wanted to run the truck was that I've probably got 1 or 2 trips down to the Sacramento area in the next couple months and wanted to minimize the risk of unknown problems popping up. With the heat or AC blowing on these for 12+ hours, that should be more than enough time to dry out. If not, I might have to contact Isspro as MiamiPSD indicated.
Might be worth pulling the A pillar cover and see if there is wetness back there. Thinking windshield seal is leaking. And run a hair drier back there for 15 minutes or so, might dry up the gauges.
