Foggy LCD Display?

Anyone else get this? There are streaks of moisture on the inside of the display...I can try rubbing on it, it goes away just to come back. Got worse over the winter somehow. Any ideas for a fix?

whoa, that's a new one! any chance you accidentally got some kind of liquid in there? (maybe cleaning the inside of your car somehow?)

how about a really low temperature blow dryer? (emphasis on really low temp as I'd hate to damage the display)

Think you're the first one to have this issue so best of luck man, hope you can get it fixed

Yeah I searched the forums and didn't come up with anything

The closest liquid that's gotten to it was a lightly damp towel while cleaning the dash, but it's not like I rubbed the display forcefully with it.

It's also not VERY foggy, I can read everything off it, it's just an annoyance

You could replace it. People sell them on here. Not sure how easy/hard it is to replace though.

Actually this morning it looked back to normal o_0, despite being foggy for a couple weeks

so...nevermind, for now at least
