Abstract
A condensation management system includes a vehicle lighting assembly with an interior vented to an ambient environment through a conduit, a moisture control assembly with a desiccant assembly positioned such that air passing through the conduit passes through the desiccant assembly, and a heater for heating the desiccant assembly in response to a difference between the interior and the ambient environment.
