Condensation in headlights

Our passenger side headlight has a lot of condensation in it. Do we need to replace the headlight altogether, or is it possible it’s just the gasket that needs to be replaced? What do we need to do to check it? I don’t really want to drop $400 in a whole new set if there’s a relatively simple fix.

I removed the headlight assembly, brought it inside the house and dried it out using a hair dryer/wood stove. I then carefully inspected and resealed it. it's been good for about 4 years now.

Not sure what coach you have. We have '14 Allegro Open Road and had some success with running headlights on high-beam to help dry out condensation on passengers side.

Our problem was eliminated when we had a drain installed to route A/C condensation away from bracket that holds PS headlight assembly. There have been some posts here on how to construct the drain, but it did not work for me. Tiffin installed drain while we were having service in Red Bay.
