JDM headlight condensation

ok so i got my jdm black housings in this past weekend (pics forthcoming). my problem is that my passenger light has a leak somewhere! i washed it at work yesterday and it fogged up bad. i blew an air hose in there and had a good amount of water on the bottom of the housing. funny thing is that when it was raining the day before, they were fine. i'm guessing it's the much higher pressure of a water nozzle. in any event, does anyone have any suggestions how to check for/fix this problem without having to take it all off again? i'm guessing it's one of the seals. i sprayed the air gun all along the "bottom" of the light from the outside and didn't see the water move inside at all, so i think that's ok. and i didn't wash it from the inside of the engine bay so i think that's ok...just don't know of any way to check it. thanks

the seal could be messed up, if it is, i would use a heat gun and take it apart, and then reseal it.

To check for the leak, i would submerge different parts of it in a tub of water and see if any water gets it, if some water gets it, u know its the seal of the outershell to the housing that is leaking.....

That's the only thing i can think of, good luck
