Default Re: Condensation on the inside of windshield

Any help here guys would be greatly appreciated.
was the condensation on the inside or outside of your windshield? if on the outside it's simply because your windshield was chilled by close proximity to the vents to the point that humid outside air in contact with the windshield reached its saturation point and condensed. if the condensation was on the inside of your windshield it could be that at a high fan speed the high volume of air being drawn into your car wasn't sufficiently dehumidified and is coming out of the vents as a mist which adheres to the inside of the glass. i think that running the ac in recirculation mode would cure the issue.

more importantly, was the condensation on the inside, the outside, or on both sides of your glasses? last time my glasses fogged up really bad i couldn't tell if i was tipping in dollar bills or twenties.
