Mine has never done that. Do you park outside? My car has always been garaged, and I haven't had the EGT in cold weather yet, so maybe mine will do it too.

my egt and boost guage do that. like after it rains and theres moisture in the air, Its fogs up on the inside of the guage which is a bitch! I'm going to put some clear silicone near the bezel area and on the back side to block any openings.

I just installed the EGT so I don't really have anything to base it off of yet, but my Fuel press, oil press, boost, or A/F don't do that, just my EGT... And it's whenever the car warms up, not just sitting there with it off.... Kinda wierd I think... It does it when the windows don't fog up... Just whenever I run the engine... I emailed autometer a sec ago, so in a week or two when they actually respond to me, I'll copy and paste their response. It's on the inside though, can't be wiped off on the outside... So I can see the gauge when the car is off, but when I'm driving it's fogged up and you cant make out the numbers, ain't that some fxcked up sh!t?
Anyone silicone every hole yet and see if that helps? -- Brad Rickard 98 GS HRC Stage V (nuff said)

Sir,
You will need to return the gauge to us for the glass to be changed to a new permanently coated anti fog lens. The address to ship to is:

> Dear Service, > > I have installed my EGT gauge properly. The same way I installed the A/F, Boost, Fuel Press, Oil Press, Tach, etc... But the EGT face fogs up when I start the engine up and it starts to warm up. What am I doing wrong? It fogs up to the point where I cant read the numbers or even see them... Help me out guys. > > 1998 Mitsubishi Eclipse _________________________________________
