My recommendation for getting the permaseal out is to use a sharp 1/4" chisel. You can get a cheap package of 4 different sized chisels from Harbor Freight for like $8. Heat the tip of the chisel with a torch or over a gas stove for about 15-20 seconds and then start peeling up the permaseal from the bottom of the channel and then the sides. Continue reheating the chisel as needed. If you see smoke while peeling out the permaseal, your chisel is a little too hot. If it's a little too hot, it shouldn't hurt the plastic, but keep the chisel moving and wiggle back and forth if needed as you apply pressure and you won't harm the plastic at all.

@pavmik15 жыл бұрын
Claus Scholz Hey! Thanks for the response. It could be a number of things. If all of them work and then shut off. I’m tempted to say it’s the TMS module (the black motherboard looking thing). I had the same problem but mine wouldn’t come on at all. That module controls all your LEDs. But I’d hate for you to change it and it goes bad again if it is still wet inside. What I would do if I were you is take off all the modules and caps off of the headlight that got wet inside. Get a hair dryer (not a heat gun because you’ll melt the light). Let the dryer blow hot air in the light for about 20-30 minutes so everything dries out. Your light will get hot but it won’t melt don’t worry. And separately let your modules dry in the sun for about 30 min. Just in case there is still some wet spots on them. Make sure everything is dry because just a little bit of water can cost you a whole lot more money. Then take off the TMS module on your good headlight and put it in the headlight that got wet. (Compare their part numbers to make sure it’s the same).Also put all the Modules back on so you can plug it to the car to test it. If that fixes your problem just buy a TMS module for the side that went bad. Make sure you buy one that has the exact same part number and make sure it’s OEM. You can buy it on eBay for about $200. Which one of your LEDs do not work? The turn signal and rings?

If you change the TMS module from the other side and it still doesnt work, try swapping all the bulbs and the LED modules (turn signal, rings) from your other headlight. I know the turn signal wont fit in because its opposite side but as long as you get to plug it up. Sorry there is only so much i can help over messages. Let me know how it works out.

Why didn’t you just put it in the oven from the start
@NathanKopilec4 жыл бұрын
In my opinion, having done this before, it's better to cut the lens off first so you can pull it out cleanly with pliers and hands after heating. This avoids damage to the housing caused by prying. One extra step ends up being less of a hassle and ensures the housing plastic remains pristine.

because it has hard silicone that doesn't get soft when you heat it.

I just did this for a customer last night. The permaseal was harder than I thought it would be but not impossible to pry open. Also what makes this harder to pry open is the fact that the housing is thick. But lots of heat is needed to get it done. 250 oven at least

@pavmik15 жыл бұрын
Christian Andolini Maybe it’s possible. But this is the best way that works for me. That way the housing looks neat after you are done. If you try to pry the lens out you will most likely have a chewed up housing. It’s even super hard to do it when I cut the lens. I can only imagine how bad it would be trying to pull it all out in one piece.
