Hi Members:

Are the lamps pressurized or under low pressure?

I have noticed that the lamp enclosures have a seal around the sockets and whenever the socket is removed, I have heard a woosh of air flow [entering or exiting]. Recently I had the fog lamp and it has a plug covering which can only work if there is low pressure in the lamp enclosure [else it would have just blown away].

Those who have replaced the bulbs to LED type or even replaced blown bulbs ... have you encountered the same flow or air.

It could be pressurized from temperature difference. Its sealed from dust and water best it can be, so if you happened to be out in the sun the inside of that light would be a bit warmer than outside and could release pressure upon bulb removal Id imagine.

 

I haven't experienced that. I think they are just sealed against dust and moisture.
