Enhancing the Quality and Performance of Part# 5890 LED Fog Lights

At ORACLE Lighting we are committed to delivering the highest quality products and continuously improving our designs to ensure the best experience for our customers.

We identified an issue where, in some cases, customers reported that the LED emitters in Part# 5890 fog lights could develop a heavy fogging and droplets on the internal lens. This was caused by moisture entering the unit and condensing inside the light module.

Analysis: To recreate this phenomenon the individual modules were tested in a spray chamber and subjected to high pressure spray and vapor testing. In this testing simulation jet nozzles delivered high pressure spray from all directions simulating extreme conditions.

Root Cause: In this simulation it was determined that on some units the sealant around the cable input was penetrated by the high pressure jets. The vapor that entered would then condensate and appear as fog on the lens of the light module.

Corrective Action: In order to assure that this area is fully sealed a re-design of the mold was completed in February of 2024. This revision created a chamber around the cable so that the sealant can be injected after cable assembly which would allow the sealant to completely encapsulate the opening and cable itself.

These changes ensure complete encapsulation of the opening, preventing any potential moisture entry and enhancing the long-term durability of the fog lights. With this redesign customers can expect even greater reliability and performance from our LED fog lights, even in the harshest conditions. We appreciate your trust in our products and remain dedicated to providing the best possible experience.

FAQ: 

Q: When did this change take place?

A: The design was updated by ORACLE Lighting in February of 2024.

Q: If I order this product, will I get the new design?

A: Yes, we only stock the new design with the updates applied.

Q: What if I have some fogging in my lens?

A: Some fogging is normal from environmental factors such as humidity and temperature differentials. These lights (as well as most modern lights) have valves in place to allow the differentials to climatize which results in fog dissipation. No further action is needed.

Q: What if I have beading of water in the light?

A: Beads of water can indicate that moisture has penetrated past the seal. In that case we can replace the module with a new unit. Please use the form located at www.oraclelights.com/rma to request a replacement.
