I have that problem on the centre screen and dash binicle in the convertible car. If I'm parking up for a few days I put 2 mains heating recharge dehumidifiers brought for £10 each in by the moniter annd dash, works a treat.

What an odd space to get condensate... is moisture able to get here from an external source?

Common issue in cooler climates.
Thus totally foreign to a banana bender ;)

Common in cool wet climates, loading/unloading in the rain, puting wet coats and objects in the vehicle when raining and then having the vehicle warm/hot inside. Getting out to leave the vehicle in the cold damp air and condensation forms inside. Makes it self visible on the screens of monitors and dashboard binicles. I run the heater together with the air con to keep humidity down when it's wet

I got condensate behind the plastics in my old Triton a few times... but it had a HOLE in it where you could manually press the trip reset! So that would explain it. I pity those who live in such conditions!
