I'm getting really bad condensation in my headlights. It got to the point that my car threw errors(adaptive, turn signal, daytime running lights, parking lights). I opened up the headlight cap in the wheel well and the other cap you access by popping the hood. Light has been drying out and it looks almost completely dry. My turn signals and eyebrow light is working again but still getting the adaptive and DRL error messages. The headlight isn't cracked so I know it's got to be a bad seal. My question is what seal is it? What seal do I need to replace.

I purchased Bmw part number 63117268653 which is #4 in the following diagram but this isn't what I thought I was purchasing and turned out to be wrong part

I thought I was buying the seal for the headlight caps which are #2 and #3 in the second diagram. There's a seal around the caps maybe those are the seals that need to be replaced? Anybody else have luck in this situation? Please help I'm getting desperate.

Also, is there a way I can take out the headlight control module and dry it and see if the errors will go away or do I need to just order a new one
