Default Fuel gauge fog?

Anyone out there ever have trouble with your fuel gaugefogging up after a wash? How hard are they to replace? I'm thinking of going with the L.E.D.one.

Mine fog up every cool morningI take the beastout of the garage & fire it up. It goes away after about 15 miles. They still work fine, nature of the beast.

Mine fogs all the time when it gets wet. It's the only gauge that does. I've just decided to ignore it and ride. I'll deal with it if/when it quits working.

Mine fogs up as well. It seems to get better in the summer time unless it is very humid out. It dries out the longer I ride, so it's just an excuse to take a longer ride when I got out.
